About Care-A-Lot Child Care & Preschool
Our Facility... Care-A-Lot Child Care & Preschool is dedicated to the promise that learning is best facilitated in an environment which is challenging, hands-on, and of course, FUN! We assist the teacher in creating a environment through our integrated, developmentally appropriate programs. Focus on the individual child... Although your child’s teacher is the critical element of any learning environment, at Care-A-Lot we believe the programs selected by the teacher play a crucial role in creating that “special” environment. Therefore, all Care-A-Lot programs possess the following characteristics: Integrated subject areas that make learning meaningful and fun. Developmentally appropriate activities which facilitate development of the “whole child”: social, intellectual, emotional and physical. Flexibility which allows the teacher to adapt activities to meet the individual needs of each child. Activities based on sound educational theories about how children learn and develop. A parental communication element which encourages involvement and keeps parents informed of their child’s development. Creative, hands-on activities which allow children to learn through experimentation / exploration. Activities which simulate creativity and foster a positive self-image in each child. Our programs incorporate many of the teaching practices embraced by the National Association for the Education of Young Children.
