Filosofía

Mary’s Little Lambs is a home-based child care and preschool in San Francisco founded by Mary Jean Ramsey. This program is a sister program to Mary’s Little Lambs and is co-directed by Mary and her daughter Brandy.

At Mary’s Little Lambs, we believe children learn and grow best when they are in a safe and loving environment and when their needs as individuals are understood and met. We provide a loving in-home child care program that features fun, play-based learning and has an expansive collection of activities, toys, books, and games. We encourage children to communicate, work together as a group and above all, take care of one another. We look forward to a long and prosperous relationship with your child and family.

We believe that children grow, learn, and thrive by following their own unique style of discovery. It is our goal to provide an environment that engages children with developmentally-appropriate activities and materials. In our program, children will feel genuinely cared for and cherished.

We follow a play-based philosophy. We believe that children learn social, cognitive, and emotional skills by exploring new experiences. We prepare our environment to be responsive to the children in our care, and allow children’s own interests to help facilitate their learning and engagement.

Ubicación

Mary’s Little Lambs II is located in the Fillmore Center in the heart of Fillmore. It’s such a multicultural location just minutes away from our local playground, which hosts children from all around the neighborhood. We are located just feet away from grocery stores; healthy food choices are a very important part of our program.

A few other nearby places include the library, art studio, gym, and garden. Everything needed for a fun and productive day of play and adventure is a very short distance away.

Acerca de nuestro programa

Daytime & Nighttime Care

We provide daytime and nighttime options for enrollment. Please be aware that your child cannot enroll in both for any 24-hour period.

Behavioral Management

Mary’s Little Lambs behavioral management philosophy involves setting limits and offering guidance and positive reinforcement. Unacceptable behavior is explained based on the child’s age and level of comprehension. If repeated problematic behavior occurs, Mary Jean will contact the parent in an effort to work towards a resolution together.

Outings

We often take outings into the community. This includes trips to local playgrounds, businesses, classes, city services (such as fire and police departments), and other children’s attractions.
