The Young Wonders Early Childhood Center strives to provide a loving, caring, learning environment where families, children, and staff are given the respect, commitment, and attention that each individual deserves.
We believe that families deserve to be acknowledged as experts on their children. We value honesty, communication, patience, and collaboration with our families. We maintain an open-door policy, flexibility, and security for the families who trust us with their most precious miracles.
We believe that children deserve a safe, warm, nurturing environment where they are provided with stability while building strong attachments with caregivers. We value learning where children can learn and delight in achievements through play and opportunities to explore. We strive to build each child’s self worth.
We believe that staff deserve appreciation, resources, understanding, advocacy, and support to remain a professional in the early childhood field. Staff are valued for their vision, their delight in children, their skill, heart, knowledge, commitment, and ability to play.
