I believe children are naturally avid learners and as such I aim at giving them the opportunity to expand their learning through play and experiences that are tailored to their developmental needs and likes, all within a safe environment. I endeavour to offer programs that incorporate environmental awareness, healthy living and knowledge of other cultures.
