We accept children ages 0-5



 Curriculum is inspired by Reggio Emilia & Magda Gerber Respectful, play based approach.


 Children are encouraged to work in collaborative teams, problem-solving and learning from one another. They are encouraged to dialogue, critique, compare, negotiate and hypothesize. Multiple perspectives help children build reciprocal relationships.


 Art: Through encounters with a wide range of media and materials, children become more comfortable and skilled and begin to use the materials to communicate or represent their understandings, emotions, discoveries, and interests. The schools in Reggio Emilia, Italy refer to this communication as “The Hundred languages”.  


Music: We will have weekly music and movement as well as a musical shabbat party every Friday.  Children will have access to musical instruments as well as Musical “Loose Parts” to explore the sound of music. 


 Using the outdoor environment to develop gross motor skills, such as running, climbing and planting.  For fine motor skills we use the “Loose Parts” method where children have access to loose parts to create and learn. 


We will be following the California Department of Education Foundations and Frameworks. The children will have the ability to experience  social-emotional development, language and literacy, English-language development, mathematics, visual and performing arts, physical development, learning about health and safety,  history-social science and science. The Children will also learn Aleph Bet and Jewish holidays.


Primarily outdoors with some options for indoor play.


Yes.


 
Meals are homemade and healthy and include lunch and a morning and afternoon snack. 


We use the “Conscious Discipline” method: modeling good processing of negative emotions to teach children how to deal with their own frustrations 


 Our Jewish values drive the environment of the daycare. We model and encourage kindness, respect, compassion, confidence and responsibility as well as curiosity and education. We teach the Jewish holidays in an integrated curriculum, hold a weekly Shabbat party, and expose the children to Hebrew language as well as the Hebrew Alphabet. Additionally, we will have family Holiday celebrations.
