The mission of the Parchment Preschool and Childcare program is to create a warm and nurturing, creative, and recreational environment where children can feel safe and cared for while in a licensed and structured program.
We believe that each child develops socially, emotionally, cognitively, and physically at different developmental rates that are sequential and continuous during the natural growth process. We, therefore, value and respect individual differences among children and families.
We believe children need to be in a secure, risk free and rich environment. They need to be provided with a variety of activities and opportunities to learn at their own pace through active involvement with materials, peers and adults.
We further believe early childhood education should be a cooperative and joint venture between home and school with community collaboration in the process.
Our caregivers receive annual training on licensing rules and regulations ensuring that our children are in a safe, secure environment.
