The basic philosophy of Jack & Jill Childcare & Learning Center is to provide a warm home like atmosphere where children feel loved and secure. A place where the child gains in language, in skills through hands on activities which include music, art, gross motor skills, fine motor skills and other developmentally appropriate activities. It is a place where children's basic needs are met in a safe, happy, clean and attractive atmosphere. Hugs, humor, conversation and positive direction are used to promote active learning whether in play, large or small groups or individually. We want the children of Jack & Jill to walk away with positive self esteem. If they feel good about themselves they can do anything. Adults should serve as facilitators and not as directors. Our school encourages children to develop independence and an awareness of their own skills and feelings. Children are encouraged to make decisions, determine and carry out individual plans. Our school recognizes and respects the rights and individuality of children and seeks to provide an environment in which each child can successfully meet new challenges.
