LICENSE
Our facility is licensed as a Type I facility with the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services. However, we are seeking quality standards beyond the state’s minimum requirements in areas of staff to child ratios, program curriculum, staff education and training, and child safety for all of our children.

TEACHERS
Our teachers are well-trained and experienced. They must obtain fifteen hours of certified state Continuing Education credits each year. We are continually seeking the newest training and information in childcare! Additionally, there is always a staff member on site who is trained in CPR and first aid.

CURRICULUM
The curriculum is loosely based on the Wee Learn series, published by LifeWay Christian Resources specifically for weekday preschool programs.
We include a monthly thematic model, combined with an increased academic focus, ideally building developmentally from one year to the next. A two-year-old will be ready for three-year-old preschool; a three-year-old will be ready for four-year-old preschool; and a four-year-old will be ready for kindergarten.
We set high standards for learning,
behavior,
and
achievement.
BUT
we also have
