1. New Dream Child Care Center focuses on nature and the environment, while encouraging a lot of involvement and focusing on each child reaching their potential. With “open ended and flexible” classroom projects, the curriculum focuses on group work and problem solving. In addition, it focuses on building relationships with adults and other kids. Understanding and taking care of the earth is very important at New Dream. The teachers encourage the children to talk about their feelings and ask questions. Hands-on activity is very important. The children work on “responding well to the unpredictable,” as well as exploration and routines. All the kids learn in both English and Spanish on a daily basis from native Spanish speaking caregivers.
New Dream offers 15 hour per week services up to full time services, with additional hourly rates. They are open 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. (Short info by Randi).
