To assist each child to grow and develop, Brooksfield offers an educational program that encourages learning of life-long skills and concepts.
We strive to provide opportunities and experiences for the child to develop self-confidence, independent thinking skills, a love for learning and respect for oneself and for others.
Although our curriculum is rich with variety, our approach with the children is consistent.
A positive environment is presented to all children.  It is our belief that the verbal environment is extremely important in assisting each child to form a strong, postive self image.
