Carelot Clubhouse is committed to providing quality care and education in a warm, secure, loving environment. Early childhood should be a time of fun, exploration, and discovery through experiment, touch, and interaction. Our staff strives to encourage the children for whom we care to be actively involved in the learning process by providing age-appropriate activities. These activities stimulate and challenge your child according to his or her individual needs.
It is our philosophy that learning through play is a key part of early childhood. Learning through play is the active involvement between adults, children, and materials. Through quality play activities, the children gather valuable information as they develop important skills for future academic success! It is important for children to have experiences with real objects before they understand meaning of such symbols as letters and numbers. It is for this reason that our hands-on approach to learning allows the children to experiment, touch, manipulate and interact with their environment.
