S c u t t l e B u g s C D C “We are committed to you and your child!”
Our program is child driven in content and duration, with teachers research- ing and learning about the chosen top- ics alongside the children. This method nurtures and challenges the children appropriately as they can relate to the subject matter and are more likely to be engaged in the vari- ous learning moments. This also allows for teachers to recognize, encourage and document each child’s growth and development as it unfolds. Children at an early age will advance mentally, physically, emotion- ally and socially at their own pace but it is important to provide them a framework in which to thrive. We seek to develop and optimize this scaffold- ing for each child and along the way foster deep curiosity and confidence within them. Each child transitions when ready in the early years then sync up with their graduating class and the appropriate educational syl- labus two years prior to graduation. We have both detailed and general learning goals we aim to achieve daily, weekly and monthly. By the time they graduate from ScuttleBugs our kids exceed kindergarten minimum requirements. Our Infant room is needs based so we follow whatever schedule your baby is on. Our Toddler, Junior Preschool (2’s), Preschool and PreK Kindergarten Readiness programs fol- low their own set schedule between 7am and 6pm M-F. Our lower ratios allow for more 1 on 1 time when and as needed in any instance (for more advanced, atypical or developmental- ly delayed children). They will receive tailored instruction/guidance to chal- lenge them appropriately. We occasionally have offsite field trips for our older kiddos but prefer to bring the entertainment inhouse. Recent examples include a petting zoo, reptile show, bubble show etc.
We are committed to supporting you in providing your child the oppor- tunity to enjoy early learning, rich in positive experiences and healthy rela- tionships. A collaborative effort between families, center staff and the community is vital in building a strong foundation for children’s optimal health and well-being.
