Little Scholars Daycare is committed to the families we serve, providing support and encouragement.

Our Philosophy

At Little Scholars Daycare, we know each child is unique; therefore we are sensitive to their social, emotional, intellectual, and physical needs. We provide a loving, nurturing, and creative environment for children. Our philosophy is simple – we will strive to provide a warm, secure and safe environment together with the highest quality learning through play environment for children and their families.

PROGRAMS

Infants/ Toddlers

6-19 Months

Our infant program focus on building meaningful relationships with our families, built on trust, care and attention. By recognizing and acknowledging the needs of each individual child, infants feel secure and safe in their environment and thus creates a strong foundation to support the rapidly developing social, emotional and physical needs of infants while they explore the world around them.

Jr. Preschool

19 Months +

While the focus is still largely on their primary care, Jr. Preschoolers begin to take their first steps towards greater independence. We promote their development through play and natural exploration of their surroundings. We begin to lay the basis for positive social interaction and support their positive relationships with peers. We focus on using our words, being gentle with our friends, sharing, and turn taking.

Montessori Based Preschool

3 Years +

The Montessori method recognizes the uniqueness of each child and allows the child to develop according to her/his inherent abilities. Our curriculum introduces children to Maria Montessori’s five developmental areas-practical life, sensorial, math, language arts, and culture science. In a carefully prepared environment, a variety of authentic, Montessori materials is arranged to appeal to their love of logic and order and their natural desire to learn. Children are guided through various lessons and have the opportunity to explore their unique interests and talents.
