About Us
The Environment
Kountry Kidz is dedicated to our children, providing exceptional information and quality childcare. It is our goal to focus on the needs of our individual children by promoting a stimulating atmosphere for learning along with a secure and loving environment. Within our care, children develop skills that promote physical, emotional, social, and intellectual growth. At Kountry Kidz, we strive to provide a clean and safe environment for young children and their families. We promote safety using state-of-the art building cameras, providing a fenced in outdoor play area for all children and keeping our facility locked at all times. We believe in being supportive of our parents, and always welcome their positive involvement and presence at Kountry Kidz. We further believe that within our environment, children can thrive and can blossom into responsible and contributing members of our society.
Our Staff
All teaching staff have degrees in Early Childhood Education or possess other related child development credentials such as a CDA (Child Development Associate), which requires at least 120 hours of formal child development training. All staff have completed FBI and BCI criminal background checks before working side by side with any of our children. All staff are certified in First Aid, CPR, Communicable Disease and Child Abuse. They are required to complete 20 additional hours of professional child development training throughout the year, through state classes, orientation videos, in-house training and other certified professional training in the educational field.
Our teachers are very caring, loving, and supportive to our daycare children. They continually strive to provide a warm, welcoming, and nurturing environment for the children to learn and explore.
Our Philosophy
At Kountry Kidz, we are committed to helping the whole child develop and reach their potential. Our mission is to provide opportunities for interaction with other children conducive to the development of healthy social experiences and also, to provide experiences that contribute to building positive self-esteem among little learners.
All children are special, and each has his/her own personality, strengths, needs and learning styles. It is our responsibility to tap into how a particular child learns and develop strategies to help the child master all basic skills. Our program provides opportunities to experience and stimulate each child emotionally, socially and cognitively. We provide opportunities for the children to manipulate and explore a variety of media in art, music, science, math, language, dramatic play, and large and small muscle activities throughout the day and is designed based on the interest of the children. Our program will foster independence, self-esteem and problem-solving skills. Our curriculum will provide opportunity for choice and decision making within the framework that respects each child's developmental abilities.
