Daycare Trust

January 31st, 2010 | Comments Off | Posted in 123 Triad

Daycare Trust is the national childcare charity. They have been working since November 1986 to promote high quality affordable childcare for all. Their campaigning work continues to focus on childcare affordability, listening to parents and keeping children at the centre. Daycare Trust is the national childcare charity, campaigning for quality, accessible, affordable childcare for all and raising the voices of children, parents and carers. They advise parents and carers, providers, employers, trade unions and policymakers on childcare issues.

Despite the advances in recent years, particularly with the National Childcare Strategy, there remains a considerable way to go before this is achieved. By childcare they mean arrangements parents make for their children when they are not looking after the children themselves; this could be in individual or group care in a variety of settings, including at home. Schools become increasingly important as nursery schools link to reception classes and extended schools provide a variety of services for families, including childcare for older children. Childrens centres would link to childminding networks and other home-based and community-based childcare. Daycare Trusts objective is to secure access to high quality affordable childcare for all children in Great Britain where and when they and their parents want and need it, at a price their parents can afford.

Big Oak uses a variety of experiences to provide our high quality care. Children actively participate in small and large groups that encompass art, music, dramatic play, fine and large motor experiences. These activities provide children with ample opportunity to strengthen their social skills and develop their emerging cognitive skills at a pace that compliments their interests and abilities. Activities at Big Oak foster independence and a positive self-image. Big Oak provides opportunities for parents and families to socialize and get to know one another at open houses and family potlucks.

January 23rd, 2010 | Comments Off | Posted in 123 Triad

The Nursery Schools primary goal is to make each child feel special. They build their students self-esteem by encouraging them to feel good about all of their accomplishments. There are opportunities for individual and group experiences. To fulfill the childs needs, they provide a wide variety of activities such as art, music, science, cooking, role-playing and outdoor play. Through meaningful play experiences, their preschool children develop concepts and skills basic to the more difficult tasks of learning in later years. As a church Nursery School, there will be some religious instruction such as prayer at snack time and crafts centered on Christian holidays.

All religious traditions are welcome and respected. They accept children of any faith, race, color or national origin. They endeavor to create a warm and accepting atmosphere where children are free to learn, create, and grow. Play for the young child is their work, education and fun. They provide a learning environment and expose children to basic academic concepts such as the alphabet, numbers, shapes,and color recognition. Social skills develop as children learn to play together. Music, fingerplays and storytelling are apart of their daily program. Each child is a unique individual, and we strive to make each day fun! Since then, the school has continued to expand to include four classes of four-year-olds, four classes of three-year-olds, and six classes of two-year-olds.
