Our mission ...

A passionate commitment to improving the lives of all children while having fun is the philosophy of Kindersteps Family Child Care. Our mission is to provide valuable developmental information and meaningful resources that will engage young children in purposeful play and assist them in reaching their fullest potential. Together, we can make a positive difference in the educational journey of children that will last a lifetime!

 
Our Approach: is to prepare pre-school children ages two through age five years for school readiness without struggle.  Each child's learning style is considered and often used as a tool in introducing his or her curriculum.  These various learning styles are carefully nurtured to enhance and develop a positive outlook toward learning.  It is documented that children who receive proper early childhood education go on to not only thrive in school, but these children display a confidence, and positive attitude toward learning when given an educational foundation as early as age one and a half.

This Year, You Can Vote Twice!

posted:November 1st, 2010

On Election Day, you get to vote for the choices on the ballot – like them or not.

But this year, through AmericanTowns, you can vote twice.

When you go to vote, simply tell an assistant which important issues you want your elected officials to focus on after the election. Give them your “zip plus 4” (or voting address), and they’ll send your message to each of your elected officials. And if you want, they’ll press your representatives to report back to you on their progress every month.
