School Notes
- Spring Valley KinderCare is located on a hilltop adjacent to Monte Vista High School. Our professionally trained staff are dedicated to helping prepare your child for success in school and beyond. With designated learning centers such as dramatic play and blocks in every classroom, children have the opportunity for rich social play and child-initiated discovery. You’ll also find that our classrooms feature a print-rich environment full of carefully selected materials, written charts and labels, and children’s literature. By helping your child connect spoken words and print, we’re helping develop early literacy and writing skills. Our beautiful two story playground allows children to safely develop their gross motor skills while climbing our play structures and riding bikes. Our playground features grassy areas where the children engage in whole-group activities and games. We offer nutritious meals guided by the Federal Food Program. This program features family-style dining in which the children and teachers sit together for each meal. Each child friendly meal consist of whole grain products, milk, fruits and vegetables. Whether your child has first words or first grade on the horizon, we’re excited to show you how everything in our center is designed for learning! Please call to schedule to visit today!
- Health and Safety is very important to us! Our building is equipped with a keypad entry door system and fenced playground. Our staff is certified in CPR and First Aid and we run monthly drills to get the children prepared for any emergency.
