At Blooming Minds Preschool we believe in the value and uniqueness of each child and familywe serve. We are committed to an anti-bias, anti-raciest curriculum that creates teachable moments from students questions and observations. We back these discussions up by reading stories which showcase diverse communities as well as recognizing our similarities and celebrating our differences. Our preschool experience is designed to promote each child’s own individual social, emotional, physical and cognitive development. As caregivers and educators, our mission is to provide a safe and developmentally appropriate learning environment, for all  children, which fosters a child’s natural instinct to explore, discover, create and become a lifelong learner. We believe that in the right environment a child’s natural curiosity and creativity leads to endless opportunities to grow in knowledge and develop a love of learning. We provide that environment at Blooming Minds Preschool by making it a safe and nurturing place where your child will be encouraged to build, splash, dash, pretend and create their way to exciting discoveries about the world around them. Each day with us will be a chance for your child togrow socially, cognitively, emotionally, and physically. Your child will be provided with learning opportunities adapted to fit their age, developmental stage, and learning style.

 

Social Emotional Beliefs

At Blooming Minds Preschool we believe more emphasis is needed on emotional health and teaching children to understand and control their emotions. We use methods from the Whole Brain Child, such as “name it to tame it”, which promotes giving children the vocabulary to describe their emotions. This helps them understand that their feelings are real and manageable. For example wee use this during issues of sharing, helping our students describe their feelings and problem solving solutions. Our students will take ownership of their emotions and learn real life skills and tools to help them manage their emotions.
