Rainbow Child Care: Providing a Safe “Home Away from Home”

Are you searching for preschool or child care options for your family? Consider Rainbow Child Care Center! Rainbow offers a variety of age and developmentally-appropriate early education and child care programs, tailored for children ages 6 weeks to 12 years old. Parents receive the option of full or part-time programs, both of which include a robust curriculum and dynamic activities.

Mission and Philosophy
The Rainbow Child Care Center family is dedicated to delivering the best educational practices that exceed families’ highest expectations. Rainbow schools provide a safe “Home Away from Home” environment that foster the developmental growth of every child.

Their goal is to provide continuity between home and school. Rainbow believes it is important for children to maintain a familiar and comfortable routine that fosters development and learning. They believe a nurturing atmosphere, a structured curriculum, and parents and teachers who work as partners will prepare children for their future academic careers and inspire a love of lifelong learning.

Programs and Curriculum
Rainbow schools utilize The Creative Curriculum® as a foundation for the structure of the classroom environment, teacher interactions and child development. The philosophy behind The Creative Curriculum® is that children learn best by engagement and hands-on participation. Each classroom is carefully constructed and designed with age-appropriate toys and sensory activities to ensure every aspect of a Rainbow student’s experience is safe, comfortable and developmentally stimulating. In addition to core programs, many Rainbow centers provide a Montessori classroom option.

Enrichment Opportunities
In addition to standard classroom curriculum, Rainbow provides four additional opportunities for educational enrichment, included in the cost of tuition. Each program is designed for specific age groups to ensure children are engaging in developmentally appropriate activities.

Diversity Approach
Rainbow’s goal is to support a culturally diverse environment while providing outstanding educational experiences for children. They believe a diverse educational atmosphere provides opportunities to learn from one another and is essential for developing our future leaders.

Rainbow values diversity of all types, and continuously seeks input on creative ways to address the needs of the population at each school. Classrooms are filled with students who are representative of the communities where we all live and work; each school Director immerses him or herself in the community as a means of understanding needs from the perspectives of the parent, student and their environment.

Unless otherwise noted, programs run from six weeks to 12 years of age.
