Philosophy

At HeavenSent we believe in teaching respect, morals, empathy, and compassion. Here at HeavenSent we lead by example. This is a loving, military background, supportive family childcare setting, We take take the time to get to know each child individually so we can learn the interests, the culture, and the background. By accomplishing this we are able to keep the child occupied and interested throughout the day. We are aware that children learn at their own pace. Therefore; at HeavenSent children will never be forced to participate, but we will always encourage them to do so. We will definitely revisit that lesson if the child does does not feel like doing it that day at a later day and it will be approached in a different way. However, the lesson that is being taught, we will always make the best of it and will always have fun learning the material! HeavenSent takes pride in teaching and making sure your children are having fun learning!
