Growing in Faith Daycare - Philosophy

Since we are a Christian childcare center, our program focuses on Christian values and places a strong emphasis on values of God, family, and love.  We strive to provide a steady Christian example to the children in our care.  We will provide each child with a Christian environment that will enable them to build strong character and shape Christian values.   
Our philosophy is based on the firm belief that a positive relationship must exist between the parent/guardian and the teacher.  Parents are the first and most important teachers of their children.  A positive relationship between parents and teachers is strongly encouraged throughout the program.  We believe clear communication is necessary to ensure a positive program for each child.  We encourage communication in our center through formal and informal methods.  Examples of formal communication include such things as parent/teacher conferences, daily sheets, advisory board, and newsletters.  Examples of informal communication include such things as telephone contacts, arrival and departure conversations, and bulletin boards.
