Child care
At Little Lumens, we believe in providing children the opportunities to explore their interests and wants through play. Our unique and innovative curriculum will address your child’s growth in the following areas: Social and Emotional Development: We strive to address emotional competence and ability to form positive relationships that give meaning to children’s experiences in the home, school, and larger community. Language and Communication Development: We focus on children’s understanding and use of language, emerging reading and writing skills, and ability to communicate effectively. Cognitive Development: We highlight children’s ability to understand and think about the physical and social worlds. In particular, we focus on children’s knowledge of objects in the world around them; their mathematical knowledge; numbers and colors, and appreciation of art in their lives. Physical Development and Wellbeing: The ability to engage in daily activities by focusing on children’s physical health. We accomplish our goals by taking into consideration the child’s unique disposition for becoming involved in learning and acquiring knowledge. Our curriculum is written specifically to meet and/or exceed the State of Massachusetts “Early Learning Guidelines for Toddlers and Preschoolers”. A weekly curriculum will be planned based on the educational goals and objectives. Projects, manipulatives, and activities will tie back to the “Guidelines”. Weekly reports will be provided to each family highlighting the activities of the week and how those activities tied back to the stated goals and objectives.

'Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning,' Mr. Rogers said. 'But for children, play is serious learning.' As a provider of family child care, I hope to build a play-based program around the children I am caring for each day based off of their interests and abilities. Parents can expect to see a variety of activities in all areas of development happening each day including self-help skills, social interactions, expressive and receptive language skills, sensory experiences, motor development, and cognitive skills. Children learn new skills by exploration and building off of the skills they already have in place. I will encourage families to set specific goals and outcomes for each child to achieve, and I will support both parents and children in their path to success. What is NeighborSchools?

Once I had my own daughters, I dove head-first into learning everything I could about childhood development and early education. For my program, I am very inspired by the Montessori and Reggio Emilia styles. I'm a big believer in setting up a developmentally appropriate space and then letting children do as much as possible for themselves. We have a daily schedule, but I'm always willing to adjust plans depending on how the children are feeling that day. We read, create music with rhythmic instruments, engage in imaginative play, and spend time outdoors whenever possible, which is always one of my favorite parts of the day. I think it's so important for the kids to spend time out in the fresh air, with lots of space to explore. What is NeighborSchools?
