About My Little Village
A home-based daycare built on love, trust, and individual growth
🏘️ Our Story
Welcome to My Little Village, a home daycare rooted in the belief that it truly takes a village to raise a child. Guided by my cultural values and deep commitment to family and community, I believe children thrive when surrounded by care, consistency, and a strong sense of belonging.
At My Little Village, I provide a nurturing home environment where every child is supported, respected, and encouraged to grow at their own pace. My goal is to create a safe and loving space where children feel confident to explore, learn, and develop into their unique selves.
If you have any changes to recommend, please do.
Our Philosophy
Child-Led Learning
We honor each child's natural curiosity and developmental pace, following their interests while providing gentle guidance and enrichment.
Nurturing Environment
Every child is treated with warmth, respect, and unconditional positive regard. We celebrate differences and support each child's unique personality.
Family Partnership
We work closely with families to understand each child's individual needs, preferences, and family values, ensuring consistent care.
Our Curriculum
At My Little Village, we believe learning happens through play and meaningful experiences. Our curriculum approach combines the best of both child-initiated and teacher-directed learning.
🎨 Child-Initiated Activities
Children drive much of their own learning through play. We provide open-ended materials, exploration opportunities, and the freedom for children to follow their interests. This approach fosters independence, creativity, and a genuine love of learning.
👨🏫 Teacher-Directed Experiences
We intentionally design activities and experiences that support growth across all developmental domains. These include structured play, music, art, nature exploration, and early literacy and numeracy experiences.
📚 Developmental Domains
- Physical Development: Outdoor play, gross and fine motor activities, movement, and coordination
- Emotional Development: Building confidence, managing emotions, and developing self-awareness
- Social Development: Learning to cooperate, share, communicate, and build friendships
- Cognitive Development: Problem-solving, exploration, early math and literacy, and critical thinking
Our Promise: We continuously observe and adapt our approach to meet each child's changing needs. As children grow and develop, we adjust our curriculum to challenge them appropriately while maintaining a supportive, low-pressure environment.
