Mount Washington Preschool and Child Care Center, Inc.
Our Mission
We believe that children thrive in an environment which values their own uniqueness, while providing support and opportunities to grow emotionally, socially and creatively. By building on each child’s strengths, interests and curiosities, we guide each child to explore the world around them as well as develop new abilities and form close relationships.
Relationships are the foundation for collaboration, building partnerships and developing community. Positive relationships between children and adults are essential for the the development of a child's sense of self, fostering their capacity for self-regulation, learning how to interact with others, and making friends.
Play is the context in which children learn and develop. As children engage in play with the support of attentive and observant early educators, they can extend their ideas and discoveries into learning.
Guiding Principles
Responsiveness to individuals is key to building trust and relationships.
Family and community partnerships create meaningful connections for adults and children and offer invitations for learning about ourselves, others, and the world.
Anti-Bias Education involves creating a community that supports all dimensions of human differences, including culture, race, language, ability, learning styles, ethnicity, family structure, religion, sexual orientation, gender, age, and socio-economic differences. Diversity occurs when children's lives are reflected and shared responsibility in the classroom.
