It is the mission of the Gingerbread House Daycare Center to provide quality child care for all families in the community in a warm, nurturing, loving and educational environment while learning through play. The child care needs of all economic levels are served, enabling families to obtain employment or to further their education. Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children, play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood. Fred Rogers, educator and Emmy-winning creator of the children's show, Mister Rogers Neighborhood. The idea of learning through play is a key principle here at Gingerbread House Daycare Center. Our school mission states in part that through play, we promote the cognitive, emotional, social and physical growth of each child in a nurturing atmosphere. It is believed that, through this practice, children will learn the necessary social and cognitive skills that they will use throughout their lives. By working hand in hand with our families and creating a parent network of support, we ensure a positive, comforting, and enjoyable environment where children grow and develop socially, emotionally, and intellectually.
