Learning Bug Preschool

< 1 mi

Learning Bug Preschool believes that children learn best through play and experiences. We firmly believe that children learn by doing, getting messy, investigating their questions, and problem solving with their friends. They learn by playing games, using their imaginations, expressing their emotions, creating and exploring the world around them. As teachers, we set up intentional play activities and explorations that meet the needs of individual students. We question and extend their thinking and play to help them learn and grow. We provide high quality instruction, and care for every student who comes into our classroom. We intentionally plan, and organize the classroom so students have the opportunity to develop in the areas of social/emotional, language, literacy, math, science, creative arts, fine motor, and gross motor. Learning Bug Preschool implements a theme based curriculum. It is designed to facilitate learning through hands-on-activities; both teacher-led and student-led. We offer lessons and activities in the areas of language and literacy, math, science, creative arts, gross motor, fine motor, and social skills (character education). It is based on current research state and national standards, common core, and aligned with the kindergarten curriculum. It is our goal for students to develop the dispositions and skills to become lifelong learners, and be successful in both kindergarten and their personal life (socially and academically).

Kimberly Z. says "Highly recommend Learning Bug. Our little had a great time and her classroom is amazing!"

Hi! I am an awesome mother of two boys, ages 21 years old and 22 years old. Now that they have grown, I finally have time to do what I love and miss very much and that is taking care of kids in my own home. I am an energetic, fun, loving and nurturing mother who adores children of all ages. I was the mom to have all the kids at my house for play dates, pizza nights, sleep overs, kid's parties, etc. I know from plenty of experience it is hard to find quality, loving care for your children. I am a stay at home mom with a 4 year college degree. I am CPR certified and insured. Each time I am with your child, I will supply the necessary items for crafts, baking, coloring, painting, games, story time and creative play, etc. Weather permitting, we will spend much quality time outdoors with snow/water play and stroll to the park or lake for a picnic. We walk to the library for story time, or for ice cream and a movie, at no charge to you. Families love care in my downtown home because everything I need is right out my front door to keep your little ones very busy. With parental consent, we take trips to the zoo. I also tutor and do educational and learning activities with workbooks, flash cards, etc. With my extensive background in child care, I come to you with many excellent references and reviews. I have to say, I am very blessed to have met so many amazing families through Care.com. I've had so much fun caring for so many awesome children. Because I have formed such close, personal relationships with my permanent/date night families, this is not a job to me, but a very special part of my life that I love, enjoy and look forward to each and every day. I am currently only offering care in my own home. I have a 1-2 child limit for more personal, one on one attention. I am also available to receive drop offs, date nights, over nights, weekends, care-on-call, short term care and 24 hour emergency care. I look forward to hearing from you.

FAQs for finding drop-in daycares near you in Ferndale, MI

However, drop-in centers may fill up quickly during peak times, so it's always best to call ahead to ensure the needed availability.

When preparing to drop your child off at drop-in daycare near you in Ferndale, MI, it is important to make sure that you are bringing all of the necessary items for a successful and enjoyable experience.
