An afternoon snack, enrichment activities, and homework help are implemented through this program. We realize that school agers have different needs so older children will be able to plan their own afternoon schedule. Some children will want to work and play independently while others will require some downtime after school. Our school-age teachers and staff will partner with parents and encourage and guide the children while allowing them a sense of independence. Transportation will be provided by Grisim Bus Company to and from Stewartville Public Schools. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a8b7a83f9a61e9d6ff7c7a6/1525894946775-D6F24WWNW6QTARKMTKBZ/art-art-materials-bright-627901.jpg Programs - 3/4 Preschool/ Sprouts (33 months – 4 years) Sprouts Childcare & Early Education Center’s preschool program is the first big stepping stone in getting your child ready for Kindergarten.

Our teachers will use Creative Curriculum as a guide to ensure that your child is advancing in all pre-academic areas such as math, science, and literacy.

It guides our teachers and caregivers to implement developmentally appropriate practices and offer responsive daily routines and experiences for young children. Curriculum for infants and young toddlers involves everything we do; caring for children in a compassionate, respectful manner enables children to become compassionate and respectful themselves. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a8b7a83f9a61e9d6ff7c7a6/1525837528701-Q8MDMCPEW2FY1O0XT0VY/adorable-baby-baby-feet-266011.jpg Programs - Infants/ Sprouts (6 weeks – 16 months) Our infant program is a partnership between our teachers and parents.
