About Love Learning Center Chapin

Love Learning Center originated as an in-home family child care in the summer of 2017. Just as our children blossom and grow, Love Learning Center quickly outgrew its original modest environment, expanding to accommodate, and into a center-based facility beginning of 2019.

Core Values

Love Learning Center’s Long-Term Program Values We Strive for our Children:

To become creative, independent thinkers;
To feel competent, productive and self-reliant, as well as fostering good self-esteem and a sense of self worth through Positive Education;
To develop a sense of responsibility for their own mental and physical health;
To understand that they are a part of a diverse, multicultural global community and that their actions influence the quality of that community;
To foster the value that many kinds of intelligence – linguistic, logical/mathematical, musical, physical, spatial and personal – are valuable and important to our community; and,
To encourage the development of higher moral reasoning, helping children to develop into adults with an internalized code of ethics and principles.

Love Learning Center’s daily practice and programming objectives will be designed to support the philosophy and the established long-term goals. Our program’s educational philosophy is supported not only through its curriculum, but also by the teachers, families, and parents involved in the program that provides role models for children.

We respect and believe in each child as a unique individual with the ability to construct knowledge about themselves, others, and the world around them through active learning.

Philosophy on Education

At Love Learning Center, our goal is to provide a secure child and parent centered environment where all children, parents and their families feel welcomed and valued. Children participate in a program of educationally challenging activities and supportive personal interactions planned to foster their social, physical, emotional and intellectual development. All staff are responsible for working with children, parents, their important family members, and other staff members in the spirit of collaboration and dedication.

Our education philosophy is that young children develop and learn best when they have opportunities to:

Observe and be part of respectful, supportive and friendly adult-child and child-child interactions
Engage in the experimenting, exploring, creating, discovering and idea-sharing which are all part of the children’s activities adults describe as ‘child’s play’
Make choices and become involved in activities that are personally and developmentally right for them
