Our Philosophy

The Shepherd’s Kids philosophy of early childhood education is based on the knowledge that a child gains 50% of their intelligence by the age of five years and that the foundations for their personality traits are established within that same time frame.  We provide an enriched environment for children during this critical time.  We stimulate a child’s curiosity for learning and provide many avenues for exploration.  In our learning environment, a child is encouraged to develop their individual potentials within a Christian framework.
