Bemis Farms is a developmentally-based child care center. As part of our high quality, developmentally appropriate program, we offer a monthly thematic study that is integrated throughout the curriculum and various classroom programs.
We are also a play-based center that encourages social skills and other learning skills that develop as the child is engaged in play. Teachers encourage and support child-initiated and child-directed play because it is essential to developmental and mental growth.
To meet the needs of the developing child and provide quality care, the staff at Bemis Farms strives to:
Our Philosophy:
- Provide a healthy and safe environment
- Provide a secure, comfortable, enjoyable, and responsive environment
- Respect, accept, and appreciate each child
- Provide learning opportunities designed to promote each child's
total growth and development
- Encourage each child's independence, autonomy, and self-discipline
- Maintain an environment free of racial or sex role bias, stereotype,
or prejudice
- Honor the ideals and principles of the National Association
of the Education of the Young child (NAEYC) Code of Ethical Conduct
Bemis Farms offers a variety of programs to meet your needs. Please click the
programs for additional details:
