We provide a low provider / child ratio 1:6 that allows for more individualized attention and active participation. Although operating on a smaller scale, your child will experience monthly activities, trips and events as a larger center would. Teaching social skills, language skills and team building skills through creative play and structured activities will increase readiness for school and self-esteem in your child (ren). How will Family and Friends Day Care and Learning Center promote and provide the early learning standards that your child needs? 1. Low child: staff ratios are most critical for infants and young children because infant development and care giving quality improves when group size and child / staff ratio are smaller. 2. Improved verbal interaction are correlated with lower ratios. 3. Individualized continued adult support and guidance while encouraging independent self-initiated play and activities. 4. Children will benefit from positive social interactions from peers. Providers will provide one to one interaction, intimate knowledge of individual children and consistent care giving. Infant Program (Ages 6 weeks to 1 year) Infants love social interaction. Warm, positive relationship with adults builds trust, security, and language skills. Infants learn about the world around them through songs, finger puppets and and floor-time games. Toddler Program (Ages 1 to 2 years) The focus of this program is to build language skills and foster the child's ever-increasing curiosity. Our playful but minimal structured environment encourages milestones, explorations and independence through group activities.

FAQs for finding preschools near you in Upper Darby, PA

There are two main types of preschool programs near you in Upper Darby, PA. The first is a full-time program that usually works best for parents working full-time shifts, and the second is a part-time preschool where your child would attend only two to three days per week and typically choose between a morning and afternoon shift.

You can also check your options in Upper Darby, PA for traditional preschool centers, or private home-based preschools.

When you begin looking for preschools near me in Upper Darby, PA, consider your priorities and ask administrators about their philosophies and approach to common child care issues or occurances.
