Philosophy

We believe:

  • Caring role models

    Children are precious and must receive care from capable and caring adults whose values enable them to be excellent role models.

  • Positive milestones

    Children should experience numerous positive learning milestones that lead to an increased sense of competence and independence.

  • Learning through play

    Children’s play is vital to healthy physical development, appropriate social skills, and cognitive growth.

  • Purposeful teaching

    Teachers must draw upon their training and experience to create an appropriate educational environment that carefully guides children from one developmental and cognitive level to another.

  • Family partnership

    Parent interaction contributes to and enhances the quality of care offered at Morning Star Child Care.
