Our Teachers

Hello my name is Carla Henry, I have been a caregiver for over 50 years.(I started when I was 10 years old babysitting) Volunteered and hired in with the board of education for 10 years, I was a nanny doing the breaks. I ran my own in-home child care for the last 15 years ,the state of Michigan. Heping to make your child’s world the best you can be!

Philosophy

“Play is the work of childhood”- Jean Piaget and I’ve adopted this philosophy for years. We can learn a lot while children are playing. How it contributes to the overall development of children. I also study from Frederick f r o e b e l the father of kindergarten. Reflecting his belief that young children should be nurtured and nursed, like planting a garden.

  1. Creative play, would she call gifts and occupations;
  2. Singing and dancing for healthy activity;
  3. Observing and nurturing plants New garden for stimulating awareness of the natural world. I also believe children learn best through play and felt children should be children. Play, interactive and personalized learning, the importance of all things natural, nurturing a child’s creative talents, and allowing children to take risks are all parts of the rich and warming learning experience.
