Children of America, is a place where learning comes alive and children thrive. Innovation and creativity are the hallmarks of our teaching and the foundation of our infrastructure. We know the early years are critical in helping children build a solid appreciation for education so we ignite the imagination of each child with our proprietary curriculum developed by Dr. Vicki Folds, one of the nation’s leading child development experts with 35 years of hands-on research and experience.
"Our goal is to help all children foster their "I am" which helps foster their ‘I can’ that helps them to succeed," Teachers, work under the "I am" philosophy to promote each child’s physical, social, emotional and intellectual development. The approach concentrates on allowing each child to learn through their own creativity and self-reliance, while laying the foundation for reading, writing and logical thinking.
Other unique educational activities offered at Children of America include baby sign language for infants, Spanish language lessons for preschool age children and Phonological Awareness Literacy Screening (PALS), a comprehensive assessment of young children’s knowledge of important literacy fundamentals.
Parent Engagement
Parent engagement is critical to the development of every child and should extend from the classroom to the kitchen table. Children of America’ works with parents as partners giving every child opportunities that can make a difference. As partners we encourage parent involvement, particularly
as a classroom or as a field-trip volunteer. We know how much it means for parents to put their trust in us and we promise to earn that trust every day, and to honor the uniqueness of each child.
Safeguarding Your Child
Children of America childcare centers are designed with children in mind offering parents added assurance by utilizing state-of-the-art security systems, numerous safeguarding programs and staffing First Aid and CPR certified teachers.
A Personal Identification Number (PIN), a code unique to each parent, which signals his or her child’s arrival or departure, tracks access into the building. Beyond the center’s borders, parents are just a click away from their children. By logging on to Children of America’s Internet access program, AlwaysCloseBy.com, they can view their child’s daily activities via streaming video on the Web.
Accountability
Accountability dictates that the interests of our children must always come first. Our commitment is to be the absolute best there is in creating an environment for each child that’s full of both love and learning. Know that when you enroll your child with Children of America, the journey of discovery begins, a journey that will make a profound difference in your child’s life.
