151 Kamala Way Goleta, CA

At Posy, we cultivate children's interest in learning by creating an environment that encourages them to explore learning materials with me and their peers. We focus on supporting early learners as they make decisions, build academic skills, develop socially and emotionally, and become part of a classroom community. Active learning is at the core of Posy's curriculum. We believe the foundation for young children is gaining knowledge through their natural play and interactions with the environment, events, and other people. My mission is to inspire the children in my care to follow their passions by fostering their ideas and personalizing their academic journey. Posy curriculum emphasizes compassion and using our natural abilities to create a positive impact. Each area at Posy is dedicated to its own field of study. These specialized areas are dedicated to STEM, creative arts, literacy, and dramatic play.

Evergreen Learning Center

7631 Evergreen Dr Goleta, CA

4 mi

Our philosophy at Evergreen Learning Center is based on respect and appreciation for each child and each family that we serve. We are committed to providing a high quality program that is developmentally appropriate for children 18 months to 6 years, with after school kindergarten care available. We recognize that learning happens most effectively through respect for each child and responsive relationships between child and adult. Our approach to learning emphasizes all aspects of the child's development, thus promoting 'the whole child'. The social, emotional, cognitive, physical and creative aspects of each child's experience is encouraged through hands-on activities from which a child can absorb new information and learning. We strive to empower children with the language of their feelings as they work and play with one another. We are very committed to the concept of cooperative conflict resolution. Our philosophy has a strong basis in respectful and cooperative relationships between adults and the children in their care. There is a direct and ongoing link between caregivers, parents, children and the environment and we believe that within this circle, learning takes place.
