Lil’ Munchkins Child Care Center and Preschool was established in 1989 to offer affordable child care to families in and around the South Shore area. We are open Monday through Friday from 7am-6pm, in order to accommodate the working parents’ schedule. Lil’ Munchkins strives to create an environment in which children between the ages of 8 weeks and 6 years can grow socially, physically, emotionall
y, and cognitively. Our Infant, Toddler, Preschool, and Pre-Kindergarten programs encourage children to discover and explore the world around them through a variety of age appropriate activities and choices offered in each room. Our program provides children with the opportunity to learn at their own pace. We believe that developmentally age appropriate equipment and hands-on activities are the basis of growth and learning in early childhood. We encourage children to exercise self-control, to learn through self- directed activities, and to become independent and responsible. Children are allowed to make their own choices when discovering and exploring their new and exciting environment. Lil’ Munchkin’s staff successfully fosters positive attitudes, which in turn builds self-esteem, self-reliance, and self-respect in young children. We provide personal attention to the special requirements of each and every child and create an atmosphere of genuine love and appreciation. In addition to the safety and well-being of the children, Lil’ Munchkins staff is committed to the support network between parent and caregiver. Frequent communication between both parties is intrinsic to our program. Attached to your parent handbook is an administrative organizational chart out ling the arrangement of lines of authority and the structure of organization of our staff. We are always available and happy to discuss any problems, concerns, ideas, or questions with you concerning your child and/or our program.
