Children's Room

Our Philosophy

At RSL, our philosophy is to provide the best possible environment for the care, education, and development of your child/children. We believe that your child/children are entitled to the best that modern knowledge makes available about the education, care and guidance of children.

Mission Statement

The Ready, Set, Learn Child Care Center’s mission is to provide high quality child care and after-school program within an optimum environment to promote the healthy development of children. The objectives of our mission will be met by providing education, nurturing and love with “hand chosen” staff who embrace and perpetuate our philosophy of providing the best environment for care. There is an old African motto that was coined by Senator Hillary Clinton that states "It takes a village to raise a child….". RSL, along with Parents, Teachers, Community and Friends have created that village!

Objectives of the mission will be met by:

  • Providing education, care, and nurturing for children, staff, and community members
  • Utilizing culturally and developmentally appropriate practices
  • Serving as a role model of child care excellence for the community

Philosophy

At RSL, our philosophy is to provide the best possible environment for the care, education, and development of your child/children. We believe that your child/children are entitled to the best that modern knowledge makes available about the education, care and guidance of children. Our philosophy is expressed in a curriculum that encourages:

  • Programs that are designed to be different, flexible, and encourage active hands-on learning because all children are unique with individual skills and interests.
  • Freedom and opportunity to develop physical, cognitive, and social skills at a child’s own pace
  • A warm relationship with adults that gives children a feeling of support while developing a sense of self-worth and independence.
  • Consistent and understanding adult guidance, which supports needs yet limits actions and promotes a child’s gradual growth towards responsibility and self-control.

Program Goals

Our goal is to build and maintain a strong, diverse, and inclusive organization that allows us to achieve the following objectives:

  • Supporting families in achieving their own goals;
  • Providing opportunities and resources for children to develop cognitive, motor, communication, and social skills;
  • Promoting developmental progress of a child’s self-care, self-esteem, and self-control;
  • Promoting child engagement, mastery and independence;
  • Providing and preparing for life experiences.
