At
Hearthstone Early Learning Center, our teachers are enthusiastic about helping
your child get the best possible start in learning.
Our
teachers use
the Creative Curriculum
which is based on accepted practices of child development and the latest
brain research. This curriculum is designed to help each child acquire the
skills, knowledge and behaviors for optimal physical, social, emotional and
cognitive growth. The Creative Curriculum allows for individualization of
activities to meet each child’s needs and adheres to the guidelines to the
National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).
Infants
ELC accepts infants at six weeks of age. We provide an environment that is
bright, cheerful and stimulating where we will nurture and care for your
child. Our caregivers use a hands-on approach to child care and work
closely with parents to provide consistency between home and the center.
Toddlers
Toddlers are provided lots of support and love as they investigate
their
growing world. Walking, running, climbing, sharing and making friends are
all new experiences for the developing toddler. We are there to provide a
safe, clean, nurturing environment where your toddler can excel.
Preschool
Our
custom curriculum is the key to our preschool program. We focus on the
developmental enhancement of individual learning through enriching
experiences.
Children from two to five years old are ready to develop their social
skills. With our guidance children learn to make friends, settle conflicts
and to interact with their classmates.
Kindergarten Care
Morning and afternoon kindergarten care is available, as well as
transportation to and from school. Care is also provided on "no-school"
days.
After-School and Summer
Programs
ELC offers after-school and summer programs for children ages 6 - 12,
including on "no-school" days.
Summer programs feature weekly field trips and excursions such as museums,
parks, swimming and roller-skating.
Before and after-school care is available as well as transportation to and
from area schools.
