The mission of Little Peak is to provide a childcare option for families who want their children to enjoy the benefits of a preschool experience with daycare hours.
Philosophy of Care
We believe in providing high quality childcare.
We strive to create an environment that will foster a life-long love of learning for each unique child.
We support and encourage positive relationships among children, parents and staff.
We understand all children come from different families with different cultures and backgrounds. We believe children should be treated equally for their unique qualities. We believe all children deserve a safe, caring environment to grow up and express their own thoughts, feelings and needs.
We believe that children deserve a program that includes developmentally appropriate lessons in Social/Emotional skills, Language, Arts, Math, Science, Music, Nutrition and Physical Education.
We believe that children are competent and capable and deserve the opportunity to be active contributors to our program. With a large outdoor space available, we believe that learning should be brought outside as much as possible to help create a unique learning experience where authentic connections will be made between the material we are learning and the world around them.
We believe in providing high quality service through hiring experienced, well-trained, caring and highly motivated and engaged staff and volunteers.
We have an on-going commitment to foster the values of cooperation, kindness, empathy, respect, independence and responsibility.
As adults, we are the role models of children. We believe parents and educators should teach and encourage children to respect themselves, others, our countries and the environment.
We believe the desire to learn is inborn and that learning is a natural process. Our goal is to allow that process to unfold naturally and be there to guide and support the children in their learning.
