Hello, my name is Angelina Cintron and I operate a homemade Childcare Center in the local Astoria area in area code 11106. The Early Scholars Education Program operates on the notion that children grow and learn most efficiency with consistent hands on exploration and experiences. This program promotes young children to make their own decisions and seek discoveries from a nurturing and positively stimulating atmosphere. While cultivating each child's unique personality, I also strive and take pride in preparing and guiding their social growth based on an invigorating group setting.

Recognizing that no two children are on the same developmental path, this program adjusts purposeful education that incorporates flexible learning and care to foster each child's individual needs and interests. More than just a daycare, I offer young children the opportunity to become a part of a loving, healthy, and safe community to help them flourish and reach their true potential. This program provides care for ages 6 weeks to 5 years old and school aged during Summer and days schools are closed.

Developmental (play-based)

At the BMCC Early Childhood Center, we view our early childhood classrooms as a microcosm of a learning community. Our children are viewed as members of a peer group. As we begin to think about ‘learning through play’, the emergent curriculum is part of the early childhood methodology we utilize to foster learning in children. Our curriculum is diverse from classroom to classroom, from age group to age group, yet planned to reflect the center's philosophy and goals for children. Our goals are as follows; activities with children aim to be child-directed, teachers assist in the facilitation of learning, we construct classrooms as a means for learning, and teachers of young children set up the classroom environment to allow children to explore, to question, to work independently, within a group or with an adult. Within our learning community, we use remnants of emergent curriculum, Creative Curriculum, Jean Piaget’s philosophy, the eight stages of Erick Erickson’s approach to learning, Howard Gardener’s concept of multiple intelligences, and supportive elements of the Reggio Emilia approach. Our objective is to create critical thinking in young children. This is done by; forming healthy attachments to adults, developing a positive self-image, developing the ‘whole child’, and supporting the idea of continuous growth through an enriched curriculum. Family Involvement Encouraged To further support children’s growth and development in the classroom, we encourage family involvement. Family involvement includes maintaining the conceptual approach to children’s learning as parents serving as primary teachers of their children. To further support these concepts we attempt to build a partnership between student parents, teachers, administration, and community. Our vision is to prepare respectful, responsible, caring, skilled, and literate lifelong learners through a stimulating, integrated curriculum that nurtures individual strengths, and talents in a safe environment. The environmental setup includes many diverse cultures, languages, and themes. Utilizing our integrated model, learning occurs by continually building upon new experiences to further enhance the cognitive, social, emotional, physical, fine, and gross motor development of children. Early Childhood classrooms comprise experiences similar to a child’s home environment to support a positive, supportive, and enriched environment. Children are encouraged to take the lead, explore their environment; establish a routine, and understand transitions. The environment is rich in diverse cultures; and promotes a strong emphasis on literacy, math, science, arts, music, and movement. Learning Through Play Play is a tool for learning. Learning through play helps formulate healthy experiences for children, and healthy relationships with adults, and before long parents will observe their child; once engaged only in parallel play begin to socialize, share, and build upon small concepts, and experiences learned in school yet similar to home. The Early Childhood classroom and exploration of learning centers in the classroom encourage; Fine Motor Development: used to increase small muscle development. This may include manipulating puzzles, drawing, coloring, painting, beading, and manipulating print materials. Cognitive Development: used in our interactive learning environment. This includes engagement with peers, adults, materials, and activities. Physical Development: used in our interactive environment. This may include running, jumping, climbing, catching and ball playing, and structured outdoor time. Social Development: used to promote active learning experiences. This will be done by the use of many dramatic play experiences such as pretend play and role playing. Mathematical Skills and Critical Thinking: used to increase all developmental areas. This may include phonological awareness, vocabulary knowledge, problem-solving, creative planning, number concepts, and peer interactions. Emotional: used to increase positive self-concepts. This may include the importance of human relationships such as peer interactions and adult/child interactions. This also includes peer negotiations, the ability to make choices, and how to interact with others properly. Family Involvement: used to increase the educational ability of individual children. Parents are welcome to our open-door policy and encouraged to participate in many child-centered activities. They are also encouraged to participate in program planning such as field trips and holiday decorating. Community Development: Community development is used to educate the parents on activities they can access within the community upon the re-acclimatization into society. This includes childcare referrals, free activities within the city, medical services available, and additional support services they may be able to use upon transition into their apartments. Local trips to the fire departments, police stations, grocery stores, and pet shops are also part of our program. By focusing on the whole child and providing stimulating experiences, the BMCC Early Childhood Center helps children develop advanced learning skills.

Gross Motor Balance, exercise, movement coordination and control. Social & Emotional Sharing & cooperating, relationship skills, self-esteem. Thinking & Problem Solving Concept Formation & comprehension, logic & reasoning skills, cause-&-effect. And so much more... Why choose Reach For The STARS as your day care provider? Location: Family Day Care takes place in the loving and caring environment of a home. The site will provide a warm, cozy, comfortable feeling for your child. In a residential area, your child will not be subjected to the noise and traffic of a commercial strip. In addition, the ratio of care is much smaller in a family day care. Therefore, your child is more likely to get more individualized attention. The facility is located close enough to the Belt Parkways, Q11 Bus and the A Train to make traveling convenient. Licensing: Reach For The STARS! is a full licensed Group Family Day Care Center, licensed through the NYC Dept. of Health and Mental Hygiene. As a result, routine site visits are conducted to insure that we are in compliance and the facility is a safe place for children. Also, fingerprinting of each employee and a background check is done. Experience and Training: As well as having vast experience in child care, from their own children and from working in child care situations, our staff participates in educational, health and safety trainings on an ongoing basis. The staff is also CPR certified. Tracking of Development and Growth: Parents are kept informed about their children s progress and problems. Each day your child goes home with a Daily Report Card . This lets parents know what their child had done throughout the day, what they learned, what they ate, when they slept and other comments. Also, at the end of the week, parents are given a summery of the past week s lesson plan and suggested weekend activities to re-enforce what the children have worked on. In addition, parents are welcomed to discuss policies and operations of the center.
