Newport Coast Child Development Preschool focuses on the whole child…socially, cognitively, emotionally and physically.
Each child is born with potential. We know that the Preschool years are the most critical time in a child's development.
During this time children, based on their environment and experiences, will learn trust, self expression and self worth.
We, therefore, as an extension of the family, provide them with a warm, caring, safe and secure environment in which to explore and discover those things around them and within themselves.
In this environment , we offer the opportunities for children to make choices that will enhance their naturally emerging skills.
We encourage independent thinking, curiosity, exploration and discovery through developmentally appropriate curriculum, materials, and methods.
It is through movement and discovery, rather than a mobile state, that children grasp and learn about the world around them.
