Program Philosophy and Mission Statement
Teaching young children is rewarding and challenging. As teachers, we believe that making a difference in a child and/or family's life is a great feeling of accomplishment. Our goal is to help children grow, while encouraging their learning experiences in all developmental areas. Together, we give children opportunities to help them succeed in life; preparing them for the future, including education and challenges. We need to be educated to educate!
Our goal is to provide quality care within our community. Penny Lane is an inclusive childcare program that offers developmentally appropriate activities for each individual child in our care. Our program focuses on all developmental areas; physical, cognitive, social, emotional, and language. Children's learning experiences are maintained in a safe and natural environment.
