OUR MISSION The mission of Dreamy Children's Center is to provide affordable, high-quality child care in a safe, nurturing learning environment for the families in our community. We will provide developmentally appropriate programs that focus on each child’s growth and development physically, socially, emotionally and cognitively for children ages six weeks through twelve years of age. PROGRAM PHILOSOPHY Children are by nature curious and eager learners. Young children learn best when they experience their environment firsthand in play. It is their direct experience in the world with the people, places and objects at hand that sparks their innate desire to “find out,” “figure out,” or otherwise solve problems that present themselves through the course of everyday events. Children learn best in a safe, orderly, healthy environment. We create predictable routines, develop plans based on our children’s interests and developmental levels, arrange the classroom environment to engage and support children’s active exploration, and support children’s physical, emotional and cognitive growth. Families are children’s first and most influential teachers. We invite family participation in all aspects of our programming and welcome families to visit our classroom, participate in activities, share their family customs, assess our program, provide input into program policies, and participate in their child’s education.
