Full Time Program
My Friends House utilizes a play based curriculum that is founded on the knowledge that young children are active learners that must use their senses in the process of learning. Professionally trained teachers and caregivers plan activities and arrange stimulating learning environments which are appropriate for the different developmental stages of a child’s life. Children are encouraged to explore their world in a safe and non-judgmental environment beginning in the infant class and extended center wide.

Classroom Placement
Children are assigned to classrooms based upon birth date and developmental readiness.  Promotions are made at the beginning of the fall semester but may be made at other times in certain circumstances at the discretion of the director of My Friend’s House.
