Our Teachers

Your infant will receive individualized care and attention at Mireille’s Child Care. Our CDA-credentialed staff completes CPR and First Aid training every year, and we’re also up-to-date on the latest sleep safety training.

Philosophy

At Mireille, we believe every child is unique, capable, and deserving of love, respect, and opportunities for growth. Our philosophy is centered on providing a nurturing, safe, and stimulating environment where children can explore, learn, and develop at their own pace.

  1. Child-Centered Learning We recognize that children learn best through play, exploration, and hands-on experiences. Our curriculum is designed to be flexible, allowing children to follow their interests and engage in activities that promote creativity, curiosity, and critical thinking. We foster a love of learning by encouraging children to ask questions, make choices, and solve problems.

  2. Holistic Development We emphasize the development of the whole child—socially, emotionally, physically, and intellectually. Through a balance of structured activities and free play, we support the growth of communication skills, self-confidence, and social awareness. We believe that early childhood is a time to build strong foundations for future learning and well-being.

  3. Safe and Inclusive Environment Our daycare is a welcoming and inclusive space where every child feels safe, secure, and valued. We embrace diversity and teach respect, empathy, and kindness. By fostering a sense of community, we help children understand the importance of working together and appreciating differences.

  4. Partnership with Families We see families as essential partners in a child’s development. Open communication and collaboration with parents and caregivers are at the heart of our approach. We aim to build strong, trusting relationships with families and keep them informed about their child’s progress, interests, and achievements.

  5. Experienced and Caring Educators Our team of dedicated educators brings experience, passion, and a genuine love for children. They are trained to recognize and nurture each child’s individual strengths, interests, and needs. We believe that positive interactions with caring adults help children feel secure, build confidence, and develop a strong sense of self.

At Mireille’s daycare, our mission is to create a joyful, engaging, and enriching environment that encourages children to be themselves, explore the world around them, and build the skills they need to thrive.
