ABOUT BEFORE & AFTER
SCHOOL CHILDCARE

Activities are developed to encourage children to have fun, develop new skills and enhance self-esteem. A variety of activities includes: arts, crafts, games, sports, skits, music, special events, guests and more. For younger children activities include: dramatic play, large motor skills development and emphasis on basic skills development. Weekly themes for activities are occasionally used to give emphasis to a particular program objective. We seek to expand children's potential by providing a creative, fun environment in which they can develop socially, intellectually, physically and emotionally.

Our program objectives are:
1. To provide a program of creative, appealing learning experiences for kids through supervised recreational activities.
2. To provide an opportunity for the child's development of good self confidence and a foundation for socialization skills.
3. To create an environment that fosters opportunities for the child's development in the areas of:
    a. Health and Nutrition
    b. Physical Education
    c. Skills Development
    d. Interpersonal Relationships
    e. Self-Awareness and Confidence
    f. Self-Sufficiency
    g. Academic Skills
4. To provide opportunities for children to develop an understanding of self and others and to develop social skills in a warm, positive, respectful and supportive environment.
5. To support and strengthen the family by providing opportunities for families to share experiences and values, and to broaden their sense of community with other families.
6. Our goal is to meet the needs of families by offering safe, accessible and affordable programs.
