Our Philosophy

Firm Foundations Private Learning Center and Preschool believes that a child’s early foundations of development are important. Children develop and learn through play and hands on activities that address the needs of the whole child (emotional, intellectual, creative, physical, and social).

Each child has an individual style of learning and we will encourage their individuality by building their knowledge of learning through implementing age-appropriate activities that are fun filled and educational.

Throughout our program we will emphasize self-esteem and self-reliance to ensure that each child develops these important skills as a foundation for future successes. Firm Foundations Private Learning Center and Preschool will provide materials that will promote creativity and stimulate each child’s imagination and learning through play and hands on activities. Language development is also an important aspect of growth and development. The staff will promote conversations with open-ended questions to foster each child’s growth and language development. Staff will implement age-appropriate practices that will encourage each child’s cognitive development and independence through Creativity, Initiative, Language and Literacy, Mathematics, Music and Movement, Science, Social Relations and Social Studies! We encourage parental participation and believe that a parent’s involvement is important to the success of the program!
