EmpowerME Preschool and Childcare programs make quality early childhood education accessible to all young children, by making it affordable, even on a single income budget. The same level of quality care is extended to school-age children on all days that school is closed. The home-like environment, emphasis on values and culturally responsive programming encourage self-expression and emphasize social-emotional development, ensuring children become positive members of the community. Our approach to providing quality preschool ensures children will successfully transition to kindergarten, both meeting the California Preschool Guidelines for pre-academic attainment and because children are empowered to name their emotions, negotiate conflict, act independently, and communicate their needs– all skills that are crucial as they enter a learning environment with higher expectations and teacher: student ratios. Our school-age Non-School Day care programs continue nurturing our children by: diving deeper into our values and creating opportunities for them to demonstrate those values in peer interactions, while also, maintaining bonds created in earlier EmpowerME environments. Designed to be a safe, fun, affordable resource to working families, we are currently enrolling for our Preschool Program and a Pre-K/Kinder Program. EmpowerME's warm, nurturing environment, works in partnership with families to provide individualized learning that supports your child's development. Our Preschool Classroom serves children ages 2 and up (must be potty trained). Highlights of the preschool program include: -Values-reinforcement activities to build positive members of the community -Cognitive, emotional, social, physical and language skill development that produces a lifelong love of learning -Introductory curriculum for letters, numbers, shapes, colors, writing, math and science in alignment with California Preschool Learning Foundations -Play-based environment with intentional learning activities -Healthy morning & afternoon snacks -Flexible schedules and enrollment options Our All Day-Pre-K/Kinder classroom is perfect for 4/5/6 year-olds who are mastering skills for kindergarten entry (as determined by the California Preschool Learning Guidelines) AND kindergarteners in need of supplemental learning during before and after school childcare. Highlights of the program include: -Values-reinforcement activities to build positive members of the community -Curriculum in alignment with California Preschool Learning Foundations and Core Knowledge -Language Arts to ensure a successful transition to/ completion of Kindergarten -Regular assessments in alignment with California Preschool Learning Foundations -Play-based environment with intentional learning activities -Healthy morning & afternoon snacks -Flexible schedules and enrollment options

Rainbow Daycare, Inc. fosters a philosophy of providing a positive learning environment designed to guide children to discover new information, skills and concepts. Our curriculum offers the best social, emotional, academic and cognitive experiences for children. We provide a variety of learning experiences that encourage a positive self-image and inspire joy in the learning process. We respect each child as an individual who possesses a unique personality, intelligence and creativity. Our highly-trained and dedicated staff members establish environments that are clean, fun, creative and child oriented. Rainbow Daycare, Inc. develops close bonds not just with the child, but with the family. As a parent co-operative, we place great value on interaction and participation within the center. Rainbow is a place not just for your child, but for your whole family. We embrace a Primary Care Giver model, encouraging bonds to form and flourish between a child and a dedicated Primary Care Giver. The pre-academic curriculum utilized by highly trained Rainbow Daycare, Inc. teachers is designed to allow for emergent learning at age- and developmentally-appropriate levels. We believe in a play-based approach to learning. By facilitating learning experiences, we encourage children to learn a concept to a maximum level, covering monthly themes and topics of discussion but always tying in our core study material. We believe in building a child's skills to enable success in Kindergarten, and beyond. We offer a play-based, thematic and multicultural curriculum for children ages six weeks-five years of age. Rainbow's Curriculum was developed with the vision of "guiding" children through the learning process by utilizing hands on activities rather than "showing" them how to learn. The program also allows children to participate in a holistic learning approach with the teacher interacting at the child's level. The focus is always on the process of learning and not the end product. Our goal at Rainbow is to have children engaged in a variety of activities and to become "life-long" learners.
