At Little Sunshine House CDC we are here to provide the best care and early education for young children. We draw inspiration from the Reggio approach, as well as, from current research. It is our desire to provide a balance of intellectual stimulation, emotional support and physical nurturance for your child.

While it may look like ‘play’ it is our philosophy that experimentation, exploration and questioning are the natural mode of learning for the young child. In play the mind is always busy. 


Goals

A balance of, social, emotional, intellectual and physical stimulation is essential for the development of the whole child. In our program we support and enrich individual development. 

It is our goal:

To Support Children Socially and Emotionally by providing staff that is responsive to the individual child while encouraging self-care and independence.

To Support Children Intellectually by providing opportunities that reflect the child’s interest. These opportunities provide time for interactive exploration while also providing a unique and exciting learning experience. Furthermore, activities prepare children for future life experiences. 

To Support Physical Development by providing a well-balanced diet, an outstanding playground and a variety of physically stimulating activities.
