Philosophy
The philosophy at Precious Moments preschool is to provide quality early childhood education to children and involve community in the process of child development. The purpose of our school is teaching children adaptability to situations, enhancing problem solving and discover their skills. At Precious Moments Preschool the child development model incorporates the theories of Piaget, Montessori, Erikson, and others. Creative Learning is the part of our curriculum. Adults provide protection, security, stimulation, support, limits, and affection. Children are respected as individuals within a child-oriented program. Teachers understand each child’s interest and create learning environment that stimulates brain development.
At Precious Moments Preschool children are given the opportunity to explore materials and participate in a variety of experiences. Activities are carefully planned and implemented in classrooms. Children choose from age-appropriate activities including art, music, language development, pre-math skills, science and nature, and dramatic play. Children develop selfesteem, independence and problem-solving skills as they make choices and assist in planning the environment and the activities.
Our primary goal is for children to feel safe and secure and eat well through nutritious meals. Prior to being independent a child must know that he or she can depend on adults in a predictable environment. Children are treated with respect and kindness. We recognize that children develop at different rates and have different interests. Small group size and appropriate teacher-child ratios allow for meeting the individual needs of each child at precious moments preschool.
Our goal is to make children part of community that will understand and follow rules and help others as they grow and develop. Our program is play based and academically strong that helps children think in different direction. We serve community with this quality program so children and parents can be well prepared for next level of child’s education.
We feel parents have right to see their child when they are away from them , our school provides camera access to parents so they can view their children through live feed anytime. Parents miss their children while at work, a simple glance or picture or a video of child can ease anxiety and let you focus on work. Precious moments preschool supports live feed through camera to parents.
