The Creative Curriculum®....
The Creative Curriculum is an all-inclusive curriculum that lets the teachers focus on developing skills while building relationships with each child and taking great care of each child’s individual needs. The Creative Curriculum helps teachers plan goals in Social-Emotional Development, Physical Development, Cognitive Development, and Language Development.
The Creative Curriculum is built on a foundation that outlines theory and research to explain the importance of meeting basic needs of every child, developing secure attachments with caregivers, and supporting growth and learning in an intentional way, to support cognition and brain development in your little one!

We want to continue growing and experiencing life on this “Journey to Excellence!”
