Programs Overview

Choosing the right child care and early education center is one of the hardest decisions parents have to make for their children.  At West County Day School, we do not think parents should have to make such tough choices. That is why we have gone the extra mile to develop a comprehensive child care and child development program that also offers maximum flexibility and value. Stop in for a visit, give us a closer look and you will see why enrolling your child at West County Day School is one decision you can definitely feel good about.

At West County Day School, the whole child can develop intellectually, socially, physically and happily in a stimulating environment.

We are proud to offer the kind of positive emotional support that builds self-esteem and helps assure success. Some of the most significant learning that takes place here is what children discover about themselves, self awareness that lasts a lifetime.

And of course, we maintain a strong emphasis on other important early childhood education concepts with our multi-faceted Creative Kaleidoscope of Learning curriculum.

Self-direction is reflected in our classroom layout with distinct "discovery areas" offering children a wide variety of choices and play experiences. Each activity is matched to the characteristic ages and stages of ability for the age group, as well as the individual child.

West County Day School is committed to:

• Creating an exceptional, interactive environment that challenges and promotes children’s growth and well-being through discovery and exploration,
• Enriching children’s early literacy and learning opportunities in and out of the classroom, by partnering with parents to continue the educational experience at home,
• Respecting each child as an individual, recognizing that every child has different abilities and interests,
• Preparing children for a lifetime journey of learning, supporting their lives with opportunities to expand their imagination, sense of wonder and build self-confidence.
