Why Kid's Korner Educare

Why Kid's Korner Educare

At Kid’s Korner, we believe a strong family unit is the core to raising a successful child and we feel strong families contribute to the strength and vitality of our community. Additionally, one of the most important decisions a parent will be called upon to make in the early years of their child's life is the selection of a quality childcare provider.

The individual(s) chosen to care for children will influence the child academically, emotionally, socially, and morally. Therefore, the care selected will ultimately affect the outcome of the child's entire life.

We foster discovery and self-esteem, promote social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development of children in a creative and explorative manner, and plan and implement professional development of our staff.

Kid’s Korner Educare works closely with our local Public and Parochial School Systems to help prepare the children for their academic years and continue to promote and foster cheerfulness, discovery, self-esteem, and reflect multi-cultural sensitivity. We attain this through group and individual play and activities, teacher and self-directed activities, and unique hands-on educational experiences for the children.
