CREATIVE KIDS CORNER

 A CORE KNOWLEDGE PRESCHOOL & DAYCARE FACILITY

  OUR MISSION

The purpose of Creative Kids Corner is to provide a high standard of quality childcare
and early childhood education by enriching your child's learning through physical,
cultural, and social experiences.

OUR PHILOSOPHY 

At CKC our philosophy is based on a fine tuned balance between cognitive, creative,
and social development.  Well planned physical-motor activities contribute to growth
in all areas.  Children learn and build on their knowledge and understanding by
actively engaging in their environment.

  OUR GOALS

It is our goal to encourage each child to learn and develop to his or her fullest
potential, to be well educated, and to be a good person too.  Our center provides a
nurturing environment with teachers who encourage your child's curiosity, creativity,
self confidence, as well as their ability to share, cooperate, respect their environment
and everyone in it.

Programs We Offer

Infants 6 weeks to 12 months

The infant nursery is a spacious, colorful and stimulating environment.  Each infant is given
lots of love, respect and guidance.  We make great efforts to provide proper stimulation
throughout the day to ensure healthy cognitive and social development.

Toddlers 12-36 months

Toddlers are active learners and our program was designed to provide plenty of "hands-on"
learning experiences.  We provide a safe and secure environment for your child with a caring
and loving teacher your child can trust.  Each child is given respect, guidance, encouragement,
and support to practice new skills such as walking, talking, toilet training and sharing.

Preschool  3-4 years

The preschool years are a time of experience for your child based on thematic activities and
"hands-on" learning.  Songs, music and movement, drama, art activities and field trips are
part of our program.  Our preschool teachers encourage participation in play and structured
activities to further develop social skills and cooperation with others.  Our program
is complete with learning activities involving numbers, letters, shapes and colors.

Pre Kindergarten 4-5 years

The Pre Kindergarten program is designed especially for children who will begin Kindergarten
the following school year.  This program builds on the preschool curriculum with an emphasis
on Kindergarten readiness skills.  Letter and number recognition, following directions, fine
motor and coordination skills are just a few of the abilities we focus on.

Adventure Corner K-6th

Before and after school programs provided for children in Kindergarten through the 6th
grade. Our programs are designed to meet the changing and demanding needs of school aged
children. Building on the programs mentioned before we try to offer school aged children an
intellectually stimulating  environment as well as a place to unwind, get help with homework,
and experience their creative side.  Additionally our facilities are located just three blocks
from Wellington's Eyestone Elementary.  We have daily pickup and drop-off to Eyestone
Elementary so you don't have to.
