Our Teachers

Armoni brings a wealth of experience as a seasoned childcare provider, having served as a lead teacher for Michigan’s Great Start Readiness Program (GSRP) with a focus on infants, toddlers, and school-age children. In 2022, she achieved her CDA, inspired by her aspiration to establish her own childcare program. What she finds most gratifying in her work is cultivating meaningful relationships with the children under her care and their families. Emphasizing the importance of small class sizes and fostering a strong community, Armoni is dedicated to truly understanding each child as an individual, laying the groundwork for a supportive foundation during these crucial early years.

Philosophy

We embrace the HighScope curriculum to foster a dynamic learning environment for your child. At the heart of our philosophy is the belief that children are active constructors of their own knowledge. We view the teacher as a guide, supporting and shaping individual learning experiences for your child.

Join us in nurturing a learning environment where curiosity is celebrated, independence is cultivated, and each child is empowered to thrive through the HighScope curriculum.

Location

Brighter beginnings is located in Southgate, MI.

About our program

We offer a unique blend of planned activities and individualized learning experiences, fostering a dynamic environment for exploration and discovery. Our curriculum emphasizes active learning, hands-on exploration of materials, shared control between teacher and children, and a whole-child approach.

Our commitment to quality education is reflected in our small teacher-to-child ratio, ensuring personalized attention and the establishment of nurturing relationships. This enables us to focus on each child’s distinct needs, allowing them to thrive academically and socially.
