The staff at End of the Rainbow bases its philosophy on each child's total development. We provide an enriching atmosphere which enables the child to develop socially, emotionally, physically and cognitively. We offer a learning environment which provides developmentally appropriate experiences designed to stimulate these areas of growth. The children are involved in first hand experiences and opportunities for self exploration and discovery. Our class rooms for the two and up ages all have secure, supervised computers for the children to use at their leisure. They are encouraged to explore the world around them through free play and directed activities. Learning through play is the heart of our curriculum. Daily lesson plans are introduced through structured themes with the children's interests in mind. We provide areas of learning in music and movement, gymnastics and during the summer we have swimming lessons. Through play children learn about themselves, others and the world around them. 

  
 Children develop and learn on an individual basis. Working with children in small groups enables them to receive the personalized attention they need to excel. Also, it allows our staff the opportunity to observe and meet the individual needs of each child. Our program offers each child the individual care, attention, nurturing and love which is necessary for healthy growth. We value the individuality of each child by recognizing these differences and offering personal care and attention in a group setting. 

 
  Involving families in our program is a top priority. This helps children, parents and our staff make the strong connection between home and center. We are an extension of the family, developing a partnership where sharing support, ideas and genuine love for children is of the utmost importance. We encourage parents to visit and participate in school activities.
