Philosophy Statement
Dina’s Child Care and Preschool is designed to meet the developmental needs of young children, ages 2-5. We provide a variety of hands-on experiences through creative art, science discoveries, motor development, sensory activities and dramatic play. We want to expose the children to many different experiences that are positive and developmentally appropriate. We will introduce activities that include materials that will help the children’s natural curiosity and growth.
