Arbor Circle Sprouts

Hello, my name is Heather Jacobs and I am looking to welcome preschoolers ages 3 and up who love to keep busy into my in-home center! In 2019 I received my Associate's degree in Early Childhood Education from Metropolitan Community College, accredited bythe National Association for Education of Young Children. I have my current CPR/ First Aid certifications, SafeWithYou training, and Transportation training. I am an advocate for learning through and hands-on experiences and most importantly- play! This is crucial in early childhood development. I support a healthy balance between adult-led and child- led learning, enjoying nature, and getting messy! Being a mother of two and working as a preschool teacher has taught me that no child is the same. Because of this, my teaching is tailored to each child and where they are at developmentally. Just like adults, children do not all learn the same way. It is my job to respect this and adapt to my children accordingly. Movement is a big factor as well. Young children need creative movement and free play during the majority of their day to instill a positive view on learning. Play=Learning! At my preschool we stay busy with activities nurturing all areas of development. We practice calm-down techniques, problem solving, and communication for social emotional development. During our group time we sing many songs, learn about days of the week, introduce letter recognition and sounds, and discuss the weather. Our activities include, but are not limited to math games, science experiments, open-ended art projects, sensory bins and activities to develop our fine motor skills, and our absolute favorite- Foodie Fridays where we follow a recipe to make our own snack. We love to spend time outside, and in the Summer/ early Fall months we enjoy tending to our garden and harvesting delicious fruits and vegetables! I'd love to meet someone new to join our school family. Please contact me to set up a tour! -Heather Arborcirclesrouts@gmail.com Facebook: Arbor Circle Sprouts Phone: 402-201-5103… Read more
