Children are gifts to parents, and to the community. They represent wonder, joy and goodness, the future of humanity, and our hope for a better world. Open and trusting, each child is an individual and a special person. We share a parent s responsibility for the well-being and advancement of each child socially, physically and academically. We will respect and nurture each child in our care. A childcare center should create an environment which invites all children to make friends, to play, and learn. Parents expect the childcare which they choose for their children to be a home away from home; a place where children are safe and cared for.
