The Sunshine Station...     Early Learning Center

"Play is the highest expression of human development in childhood for it alone is the free expression of what is in a child's soul."     ~Froebel (creator of kindergarten)

Our Philosophy

" I hear and I forget, I see and I remember, I do and I understand"  ~ Confuscious

We believe in the power of  hands-on learning experiences where teachers are providing children the tools they need to explore and solve problems on their own.  We believe in the power of play not only to allow children to express themselves but to learn important problem solving skills and more. It is through free expression that children truly understand a concept. Teachers are merely facilitators and provide concrete experiences that allow children to learn by exploring a ramp for cars or "washing" dishes in the sink. It is only when we stop telling and allow children to do and see that children will succeed and become life long learners.

At Sunshine Station,  we recognize that you have a difficult schedule and support parents the best we can. We offer drop-in care and early drop-off and late pick-up so that your schedule can be accommodated. We recognize the importance of work, and the stress and demands placed on parents. We strive to make it easier on parents by giving them the knowledge that their children are in good hands. We are also the only center in the area to provide flexible scheduling, understanding that things change and recognizing the need to only pay for days that are needed in a time of econonmic uncertainty.
