We are looking for a fun, creative individual who loves children to join our team!
Our Philosophy:
Early childhood educators are the most critical factor in the provision of high quality care for children. We believe that early childhood educators who interact with children in a responsive and nurturing manner create secure yet stimulating environments which facilitate growth in all areas of development. We are inspired by the work of educators in Reggio Emilia, Italy, who believe that children's learning is enhanced through observation and investigation of the world around them, and that a carefully planned, purposeful, beautiful environment provides the structure for learning. We believe that play is the central force in young children's development. Through play, children have concrete, hands on experiences which foster development in all areas of growth, allowing the child to develop as a whole.
