Discovery Isle Child Development Center
Discovery Isle Child Development Center's learning environment is built around the child's need for nurturing relationships, safety, comfort, physical activity, emotional expression, social interaction, and intellectual stimulation.
Child-centered means that our program is here to meet the real needs of children, allow them the freedom to be children, and put their physical, emotional, and intellectual well being first.
We believe that children learn best through play, both structured and unstructured, and social interactions.
Our main goals are to nurture children, help them learn to get along with their peers and introduce them to new academic concepts as they become developmentally appropriate.
