Philosophy
Here at Tweetle Beetles Childcare Center we are adamant about teaching young children how to accomplish tasks to the best of their abilities. We believe that all children are capable of wonderful things and we dedicate ourselves to helping them grow and succeed. We believe that children learn best through free play, or self-directed activities, when they are in a safe and nurturing environment. We allow all children time each day to choose the activities that they wish to participate in as well as offer them group time that is decided upon, and directed, by the teachers in the children’s classroom based on the specific interests and developmental levels of the group. We focus on working with a child’s entire family to grow your child’s independence as well as their basic developmental skills, including: communication, problem solving, self-help, reading, science, coordination, math, fine motor development, gross motor development and self-esteem.
