Owner and Director Statements
At The Discovery Center, we emphasize the emotional, cognitive, social, and physical development of each child, creating a well-rounded foundation that supports lifelong learning. Our goal is to form lasting partnerships with parents, ensuring we meet the unique needs of each family. We are dedicated to providing a joyful, meaningful experience for all children, where growth, discovery, and a love for learning flourish.
As the owner of a nature-based preschool that has transitioned from a traditional curriculum model, my philosophy is rooted in the belief that children learn best through hands-on, real-world experiences. Combining nature-based and play-based learning, we provide rich opportunities for children to explore, question, and problem-solve daily. From observing seasonal changes, gardening, and composting to dramatic play, sensory exploration, and collaborative games, our curriculum seamlessly integrates core skills like literacy, math, and science in ways that feel meaningful and engaging. This balanced approach nurtures academic growth, social-emotional development, creativity, and resilience. By connecting with nature and engaging in purposeful play, children develop curiosity, confidence, and a deep respect for the world around them. At The Discovery Center, we strive to support each child’s unique journey, fostering a love for learning in a nurturing, stimulating, and joyful environment. |
