WHY SUNNY PATCH PRESCHOOLÂ OVER OTHER OPTIONS?
Our focus is on family, fitness and high quality nutrition.
Consistent Caregivers - young children thrive on consistency and routine. My sister Theresa and I are the primary people your child will see every day. You won’t have to wonder who your child’s caregiver was for the day or which room she will be in as is custom for most larger facilities.
Smaller program - means better security, lots of familiar faces and less exposure to illnesses. Our program is the perfect fit for families looking for care that offers personalized service, social experiences and school readiness activities.
Healthy Home Cooked Meals - We provide fresh produce, lean sources of protein, whole grains and milk or water for our meals and snacks. You won’t find many foods with artificial food dyes or sugar in our menu unless its a special day.
Excellent Communication - We upload to Facebook and Brightwheel daily to communicate with our families. You will receive daily photos, videos and a note about our activities / meals. Teachers are just a text away in the messenger and your bill is automatically deducted from your account each week and your statements are ready for printing whenever you need them.
Support With the Transition into Care - Transitioning into group care can be STRESSFUL for parents and children who are new to group care. We provide our families with lots of photos, videos and feedback through the whole process. We encourage you to visit our Brightwheel app with your child before care so he or she can become familiar with the new faces and environment BEFORE the first day.
Parenting Advice - We know that being a first time parent is CHALLENGING! It’s not always easy to know how to handle tantrums, sleep schedules, discipline and regulation. We’re here to help! With over twenty years experience and training in the filed of early childhood education both you and your child are in good hands.
Hands on Learning Environment - we know screen time has long term negative effects on growing brains. You won’t find any tablet time in our classroom. Instead children will be encouraged to focus on building social skills and practicing hands on learning.
LOTS of Outdoor Play! - Time in nature is crucial to your child’s physical and mental health. Our outside classroom provides your child lots of time to be in nature while they learn.
We Provide Outdoor Gear - Lugging a diaper bag and outdoor gear back and forth to care is a drag! We provide rain suits, snowsuits, hats, gloves and a place to store your personal items so all you have to do is drop your little one off for a fun day of PLAY!
