MEALS
YOUR CHILD WILL HAVE HERE:
Since this facility is registered a Pennsylvania State Food program
( Children's Choice of Pennsylvania ), your child can expect
to be provided with...
1. Breakfast (served between 9:00 and 9:15am) consisting of cereal,
milk, and juice.
2. A full course lunch consisting of a meat, vegetable, fruit,
grain, and milk.
3. A source of snack is also served at 4:00pm each day.
TEACHING ASSISTANTS:
Obviously
one person would have their hands full with 12 children between
the ages of 2 and 5. This facility employs teaching/child care
assistants to help with the children. One of the problems in
schools today is the teacher/student ratio. The assistants work
with me to provide the children with the individual attention
they often need while learning about this big world we live in.
*This
establishment is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
SPECIAL
FEATURES:
One
of the special features offered at this day care facility, should
the parent(s) opt for it, is to have digital pictures sent to
them by Email to them at work throughout the day. This provides
a way for the parent(s) to 'share' the days exciting activities
with their child(ren). Often times a child will come home from
day care trying to tell mom or dad all the exciting things they
did, but deliver the stories piecemeal. With the pictures, the
parent(s) will know exactly what their son or daughter is telling
them! It's a neat way for working parents to keep in touch with
their children as they grow and learn. How important is that
in a world of "Disconnectedness"?
Another special feature offered at this
day care facility is the implementation of a daily 'log book'.
Each child brings with him or her a 1" 3-ring binder. This
binder is then used to hold a log for each day they attend, outlining
the day and all they did. They also keep their learning papers
in them so they can refer back to them and/or show mom and dad
what they did. This provides a unique way for the child(ren)
to look back at all they have accomplished, thus helping them
become more confident and stimulated.
