Stansberry Early Childhood Center Nurturing Young Minds
A Foundation Built on Play-Based Learning
At Stansberry Early Childhood Center, we believe that the foundation for a lifelong love of learning is built upon play. Our curriculum is carefully designed to leverage the power of play to foster cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development. Children aren’t just passively absorbing information; they’re actively constructing their understanding of the world through exploration, experimentation, and social interaction. From building intricate block towers to engaging in dramatic play scenarios, every activity is designed to challenge and inspire.
Small Class Sizes: Individual Attention and Nurturing Relationships
We understand that each child is unique, with their own individual learning style and pace. That’s why we maintain small class sizes, ensuring that every child receives the individualized attention they deserve. Our dedicated teachers build strong, nurturing relationships with each student, creating a supportive and encouraging classroom environment where children feel safe to take risks and explore their potential. This close teacher-student ratio allows for personalized learning plans and targeted support, maximizing each child’s growth.
A Curriculum Designed for Holistic Development
Our curriculum is comprehensive and thoughtfully crafted to address all aspects of child development. We incorporate elements of literacy, math, science, art, music, and physical education into our daily activities, seamlessly integrating these subjects into engaging play-based learning experiences. For example, counting blocks during construction time reinforces mathematical concepts, while dramatic play encourages language development and social skills. This holistic approach ensures that children develop well-rounded skills and a broad understanding of the world.

This foundation in social-emotional learning sets them up for success not just in school, but in life.

We believe that a child’s physical surroundings play a significant role in their development, and our classrooms are designed to be bright, welcoming, and equipped with age-appropriate materials that encourage exploration and creativity. We prioritize safety measures to ensure a secure and nurturing environment for all children in our care.
