Pumpkin Patch Preschool is a small private preschool for children age 3-5. We do one thing here and we do it well, that is to teach our preschoolers as much as we can and have as much fun as possible doing it. I credit the success of our program with a combination of things; Low student to teacher ratio 2-10, The ability to give personal attention to each child and their family. The individual attention and care your child receives is second to none as well as the learning experiences that are designed around your child's development. Many years of tried and true practices have gone into our plan to help your child achieve self confidence, independence and kindergarten readiness.

Yvonne T. says "This truly is a unique program. Kids are happy and having fun, they don't even realize how much they are learning. Quality place for our kids."

OUR MISSION KIDSWORLD CHILD CARE SERVICES mission is to provide exemplary child care by offering a program tailored to ensure high-quality daily experiences for each child. OUR PHILOSOPHY We treat the children in our care with respect and strive to instill within each of them a love for themselves and others, as well as a love for learning. We provide each child with an environment that is safe, healthy and promotes learning. We believe that children learn by doing. We operate a developmentally appropriate program that provides each child with many large group, small group and individual experiences to aid in their cognitive, physical, social, emotional and spiritual development. We believe that the dedication of our teachers and their desire to provide a healthy environment allows our program to be successful. They are vital to our program and we provide them with all of the support they need to accomplish their mission. We believe that parents are the primary teachers and role models for their children. We strive to partner with them and to offer them guidance, encouragement, and support in nurturing their children to become responsible adults. We believe that we must all work together to teach our children how to behave appropriately. We guide the behavior of the children entrusted to us through positive methods such as modeling and helping them to learn the language necessary to express their feelings. Our greatest hope for ourselves and the children in our care is that we will set the example for them to follow to allow them to reach their highest potential.

We offer a preschool curriculum which includes teaching the children their numbers, letters, colors and shapes. The program is geared towards children aged 3 and up. Depending on the child s individual assessment, we may start the program early if the child can demonstrate a basic knowledge and understanding. We also do sound recognition and basic adding and subtracting skills. The emphasis is on the children having fun learning. We want their first experiences in a school like environment to be positive and to promote a lifelong love of learning It is my personal belief that if a certain child is not ready for the program, I do not force it on them. I feel by doing so, I would only have a negative impact on their desires to learn in the future. This is not to say I will not push and challenge them to learn, just that it will not be pushed on them if they are not quite capable. They seem to let you know when they are ready. Small cues are noticeable such as wanting to join in the reading or just a general level of interest in what the other children are learning.

Denise B. says "I have known Christine for years and she runs a wonderful child care program. Anyone would be extremely satisfied contracting care with Christine."

Does a regular daycare setting overwhelm your child? Is your child easily distracted and not able to achieve the growth and development they deserve? Looking for a smaller, more individualized environment? About Us PCAL Pals is a specialized daycare program where young children can be exposed to a social setting but receive more attention and expertise to assist in their growth before entering school. As a subset of the Center for Applied Learning, our program caters to children who may struggle in a typical daycare model. With specially trained staff and an intense social and emotional approach, your child s long-term well-being is our #1 priority. We focus on establishing prerequisite social skills, so your child is prepared for a successful transition to Kindergarten. The Pals program is a relaxing and caring environment that is dedicated to offer individualized attention but also provide an opportunity to develop meaningful relationships and experiences with peers. How We Engage Children? Recognizing the individual needs of each child (i.e. working on food and transitioning challenges, etc.) Promoting social skills growth Teaching self-regulation and self-advocacy tools Fostering each child s unique interests and strengths through group and individual activities Mission The Pals program focuses on the growth of the whole child through a play-based, creative, interactive programming. We promote this growth through a warm, engaging, and stimulating environment rooted in deep caring, and trusting relationships among staff, children, and families Philosophy PrideStar believes young children (ages 3-5) develop best through cooperative hands-on exploration and play, which is at the core of our program. Play develops qualities such as empathy, exibility, communication and capacity to collaborate which children need to lead happy, fulfillled lives. Cooperative play is a primary learning path at PCAL Pals. Our specialized environment provides ample opportunity for skill acquisition through play, to be applied to developing relationships. At this age, we believe that sitting and having a child count blocks doesn't compare to natural peer-supported activities and engagements. We want to capitalize on what engages children at this age so that they are excited for their future.

You can also check your options in Lowell, MA for traditional preschool centers, or private home-based preschools.

When you begin looking for preschools near me in Lowell, MA, consider your priorities and ask administrators about their philosophies and approach to common child care issues or occurances. You may also want to ask about the ratio of learning time to supervised play time so you can get a good sense of whether you believe your child's needs will be met.

Also, make sure to check directly with the preschool for information about their local licensing and credentials in Lowell, MA.
