TLC Child Care Center

Our Philosophy

The philosophical basis for TLC’s program is that each child is a unique human being with his or her own personality, strengths and interests. The curriculum and teaching approach is based on the National Association for the Education of Young Children’s (NAEYC) publication on Developmentally Appropriate Practice.Reading to toddlers

A Look at Our Curriculum and Classrooms
Infant
		Our youngest children, 8 weeks to 18 months. We are committed to providing individualized care at low teacher child ratios, optimizing our ability to accommodate each child’s individual routine and daily schedule. While all of the caregivers get to know each baby, each child is assigned a primary caregiver who is responsible for knowing that child on a very intimate level.


Toddlers
		18 months to 3 years old Primary caregivers are assigned to toddlers. Emphasis is on individualized attention and daily routines in an environment designed to stimulate and develop the mobility and curiosity of these young explorers

TLC Threes
		3 years old We follow a teacher/child ratio of 1:7 and focus on helping children to communicate and develop a curiosity for the world around them. Socialization and self-help skills are encouraged.

Preschool
		4 to 5 years old Our low teacher/child ratios are continued in this group as well, with a 1:8 ratio. Classroom activities provide opportunities for children to participate individually, in teams and in small groups. Teacher directed and child directed activities are included in a daily schedule of indoor and outdoor, quiet and active periods.
