Young Minds Daycare

ctivities to challenge your child. I encourage positive learning, productive interaction, constructive criticism, group fun, play and enjoyment. I promise to provide not only excellent supervision for your children but to create an environment of learning fun, equipping their young minds for the journey into the academic future for which they will all too soon be endeavoring. An educational activity is included daily to suit each child’s age and appropriate developmental stage. A variety of toys, enhancing daily growth and social interaction in play. An excellent supply of crafts, games, puzzles, interactive toys, and learning activities to encourage problem solving and fine & gross motor skills. Fun, Friendship and Co-operation is emphasized. Your Children are encouraged to explore their imagination through Dramatic play, using make-believe items and areas to complement. In doing this, I believe it motivates and develops their imagination and life skills. Participation is a tool required in our daily program. Special tasks for participation will be noted on a calendar each month, and these projects are geared toward teaching your children the importance of listening, learning, sharing, responsibility, and following instructions. I oblige you the parent to assist your Child in completing their assignments. Children are never too young to learn—in fact, it has been proven that their learning skills are much greater at this stage of development. The Children explore a variety of mediums and tools such as finger and brush painting, colouring, safety scissors, pastels, crayons, markers, chalk, sparkles, glue, tape, stamps, stickers, pasting and many other arts & crafts materials. Sensory play, including such items as Play-Doh, sand, rice, pasta, cereal, wood chips, beads, jellybeans, water, and other sensory experiences, will allow for another great experience for your child. Development, Personality and Character building is promoted on a vast scale ranging from many ideas to the utmost quality & excellence in value. Role Play, Songs, Stories, Rhymes, Movies, Colours, Shapes, and Letter & Number recognition are just a fraction of what is endorsed daily. Children are encouraged to share ideas, feelings, emotions and thoughts, which makes for fun experiences, as well as improves listening skills for accuracy in everyday life skills and sound proficiency. Show & Tell is one method I use in doing this, which at the same time allows the Children to be heard. Food is also provided for Meal & Snack Time: Social skills are taught, expanded and increased as well as new habits being cultivated. Children are able to have the delight of something nutritious and enjoy a variety of many different new tastes. My goal for each child in my care is that, while with me, He/She is receiving a stimulating and enriching experience; To ensure that they interact busily, safely, happily and with confidence, in an atmosphere that nurtures, develops and supports their social, emotional, physical, and intellectual needs and abilities; One that allows them to meet new challenges and new friends while structuring their personalities. I hope to be able to equip them with tools that will be an essential requirement in becoming more than school-ready. For any additional questions or if you would like to contact me, I will be happy to set up an interview or answer any questions and provide information you require to proceed. Thank You for your interest, I look forward to hearing from you.
