About Our Daycare Welcome to Chinenye Daycare! At Chinenye Daycare, we pride ourselves in being very loving, kind, gentle, and understanding childcare professionals who are easy to talk to, intelligent, efficient, open to new ideas, and above all, strive to improve the current and future well-being of the children we care for. We have many educational resources, based on the age of the children. We offer story time, learning colors, numbers, shapes, alphabets, reading books to infants, and so much more. One of our primary objectives is to provide a nurturing, fun environment for the daycare children. To accomplish this, we have child-sized furniture, nap cots, toys, books, games, craft materials, puzzles, and outdoor play equipment which will help children remain stimulated while in our care. The children also have climbing and other equipment inside a fenced backyard, where they are always supervised by our staff. In addition, we have materials and tools for early learning such as those that help children learn the alphabet and how to count. Social skills are also an important aspect of our daycare program. A child needs to learn how to engage with other children as well as with adults, and we consistently provide these opportunities. An additional service we offer is picking up your older child from a nearby school and helping them with their homework while they are in our care. We have computers which are accessible to all the children in the daycare, especially the children in the “afterschool care” program. Because we believe consistency is key, we have created schedules for daily activities, meal times, diaper changing times, nap times and more. We have an open door policy, which means the parents can stop by without notification, and call or text anytime they want and we will respond. We strive to be your partner and always give our parents peace of mind. We are completely transparent in our program and curriculum. We make ourselves available to discuss any questions or concerns our parents may have. We continuously self-assess and look to improve and make communication with the parents a paramount part of the childcare environment. We are committed to giving your children quality care. We make sure that the children in our daycare, grow physically, socially, emotionally, academically and otherwise.

Montessori
Preschool
At LTM we believe in the “whole child” approach. The primary goal of our Montessori program is to help each child reach their full potential in all areas of life. Activities promote the development of social skills, emotional growth, and physical coordination as well as cognitive preparation. The holistic curriculum, under the direction of specially prepared teachers, allows the child to experience the joy of learning, time to enjoy the process and insure the development of self-esteem, and provides the experiences from which children create their knowledge. Music, art, storytelling, movement and drama are an integral part of our curriculum as well as other things particular to the Montessori environment that encourage creative development: many materials that stimulate interest and involvement; an emphasis on the sensory aspect of experience; and the opportunity for both verbal and nonverbal modes of learning. The staff at LTM respects each child’s learning style and academic, emotional and physical needs. Each child has the opportunity to work at an individual pace, to explore personal interests, while at the same time, develop skills in how to collaborate, learn from, and teach others. By observing the children in the prepared environment, we can see that we are successful when we see a confident student, ready to explore, creatively problem solve and express concern and empathy for others.

Our Mission and Philosophy KEL's philosophy centers on bilingual education, supportive relationships, intellectual curiosity, and an engaged community. Key Element Learning is a diverse and multicultural school community that develops astute students who become bilingual in Mandarin, Spanish, or French. Our curriculum supports English and dual-language learning, and it helps children build stronger communication skills and better understand different cultures. We value curious, active, and growth mindsets and nurture all aspects of human development—intellectual, physical, creative, social, and emotional. One of the great assets of our school is that we have families from all over the world, and many of our children are bilingual, bringing a lot to our community and curriculum. We encourage them to use their Mandarin, Spanish, and French, for instance, in the classroom. Children also have an exciting environment to learn a new language through their peers and the classroom. Children at Key Element Learning are very accustomed to hearing different voices and languages, which is a powerful feature of our program. KEL's units of study, monthly theme, weekly question, classroom activities, outdoor activities, and lessons are carefully designed to ensure developmentally appropriate, language-rich programs where the curriculum is responsive to each child's interests and individual development. We believe that each child can excel at KEL. Our enriched curriculum, play-based learning, cooperative group work, hands-on activities, and responsive classrooms are deliberately structured to channel children's innate curiosity about their community, inspiring an early love for learning that serves as a foundation for academic success. Our small class sizes and high teacher-student ratios provide students with a learning environment that emphasizes a child-centric and developmentally appropriate approach to teaching a whole child and inspiring each child's creativity and character. Community-building activities foster responsibility, encourage learning from one another, and form relationships that will continue throughout their time at KEL.
