The Nature of Things, LLC

Description

we strive to provide a learning environment that enables children to experience success in all curriculum areas through the use of an integrated, multi-sensory curriculum. Our goal is to provide an alternative educational environment that focuses on Dr. Howard Gardner’s Multiple Intelligence Theory. This pedagogy encompasses eight intelligence areas: verbal/linguistic, logical/mathematical, bodily/kinesthetic, musical, visual/spatial, interpersonal/companion, intrapersonal/self, and naturalist. It is our belief that all children do not acquire knowledge in the same way. Therefore, we provide many varied instructional methods in order to create a more diverse learning climate. Teachers embrace all eight intelligence strengths while planning lessons, and students are encouraged to approach learning through investigating, questioning, reasoning, and predicting.

There often times when children need out of school care. We provide rich and engaging experiences for children after school, during school vacation weeks, on snow days, and for other school closings.

Early experiences have a profound effect on a child’s later development. The first twelve months of life are the most developmentally critical months. Great gains are made in the child’s physical, emotional, social, cognitive, sensory, motor, and language development. This is why we strive to provide a safe, nurturing, stimulating, soothing, and loving environment for your infant. Our caregivers are trained in early childhood development and are aware that no two infants are alike. They provide the proper guidance and set safe limits while respecting your baby’s curiosity. By allowing babies to safely explore, our caregivers are helping your child to develop confidence needed to try new things and develop new skills. An infant’s daily routine includes time each day for holding and rocking, feeding, tummy time, motor skills development, verbal interactions, music, supervised floor play, outdoor walks (weather permitting), diapering, and napping.
