Philosophy

Discovery One Child Care Company (DOCCC) is a State of New Mexico License Center. We strive to help all children develop a positive self-image. We recognize that children need clearly defined limits set in a non-threatening yet firm environment. We encourage children to be self-directed and to exhibit self-control. To achieve these goals, the Center applies principles that build individual esteem and avoids any shaming practices. As such, we accomplish order and discipline though close supervision, gentle guidance, and redirection. In the event a child may become unmanageable a brief timeout may be utilized. The practice is rarely employed and never overused.

A necessary tool to correct negative behavior is consistency between parents and the child’s provider. We believe that working together in a partnership with the parents is a great benefit to the child who may be having difficulties with the pressure of school and everyday life events.
