TEACHING CHILDREN TO REACH THEIR HIGHEST POTENTIAL
OUR TEACHERS & ADMINISTRATORS
Provide a quality early learning experience for children ages 6 weeks to 10 years. We provide developmentally appropriate practices to meet the needs of our infants and toddlers, excellent academic foundations for our preschoolers, positive role modeling for our school agers, and an encouraging environment for each child we care for. We continually seek to build relationships throughout the community that will link our families to the businesses, educators, and community agencies equally dedicated to the advancement of children and families.
Children are acutely sensitive to the world around them, and how a space or a particular material suggests certain possibilities. Teachers welcome this influence and actively cultivate it, by recognizing the environment as the third teacher in the classroom, capable of stimulating, deepening and challenging children’s thinking without saying a word.
NURSERY
6 Weeks to 12 Months
Our program is designed for individual development at the child's own pace.
Our low teacher/child ratios
allow the caregivers to provide security, identity, exploration and continuity of care for a journey of searching and learning.
Although your child is away from you during the day, we maintain portfolios for each child so that you know your little one is not only being cared for but is growing developmentally during their time with us.
We utilize Creative Curriculum that meets ODE's birth through third grade early learning standards. The child-centered curriculum incorporates social/emotional, cognitive, language arts, writing, science & technology, social studies, math, creative art and large motor activities to meet the developmental needs of your child.
Heavenly Kids is in partnership with Ohio State University's Early Head Start program. These slots are on a first come-first served basis and are offered to parents who meet income guidelines.
MIXED AGE
6 Weeks - 3 Years
Our mixed-age classrooms encourage collaborative learning, where younger and older children inspire and support each other’s growth. By engaging in shared activities, children develop empathy, leadership, and problem-solving skills that benefit everyone.
This inclusive setting promotes a sense of community and helps each child reach their highest potential in a nurturing environment.
As your child approaches their "terrific twos," they will develop an understanding and appreciation for their uniqueness in the world.
Our teachers also work to solidify potty training, following simple directions and small tasks which are vital skills needed for our preschool program. They will become more independent and develop strategies to manage their emotions and behaviors.
TODDLER
2 - 3 YEARS
PRE SCHOOL
3-5 YEARS
By the time your child reaches 3 years old, their ability to process information, interact with others and care for themselves quickly increases. We offer an environment specifically designed to help sharpen these skills.
Hands-on activities, STEAM projects, weekly field trips, swimming, cooking, dance/drama, art instruction and mentoring from outside agencies describes our Local Exploration Camp.
Camp Leaders utilize the 40 developmental assets model to help children grow and succeed in school and community. Peer relationships, conflict management and cultural awareness is also incorporated into the activities. Camp enrollment begins in late Spring.
