Choose the Right Peoria Infant Care for Your Child
There are plenty of options for preschools and daycares in and around the Greater Peoria area. However, no Peoria infant care option quite compares to what your kids receive at PALS Praise & Leadership School. Through a custom-tailored curriculum, plenty of interaction, and skilled and attentive staff, you can be sure your child is only getting the best at PALS.
At PALS, we’re more than your typical daycare, preschool or childcare center. We’ve spent decades developing a proven childcare experience that both nurtures your child and fosters growth. We understand how crucial the early years of your child’s life are for development. Thus, our program gives your kids an early advantage and helps them become more successful later in life. Your children will be encouraged to discover and expand their innate talents through their time at PALS.
Fostering Growth in Multiple Ways
It’s all about ensuring your child gets the most out of everything they do. Thus, PALS presents unique daily challenges to your children that allow them to broaden their understanding of the world and make educated decisions by themselves. Some of our primary focuses are gross motor skills, developing language, stimulating the mind and more.
- Gross Motor Skills
- Throughout the day, we present your child with multiple activities we call Baby Games. During Baby Games, we play fun and engaging games with your kids that keep them happy and entertained. However, they not only have fun during these games, but each activity helps to develop gross motor skills.
- Language
- There are several methods in which we introduce your child to language. The first of our methods is Tiny Tunes. During Tiny Tunes, we either work with your child one on one or in a small group. We then sing songs that introduce easy words and language that your kids can now associate with sounds and music. Additionally, we use Word Cards throughout the day, each with a new word and related images, to further stimulate your child’s brain.
- Cause and Effect
- Introducing your child to the concept of “cause and effect” early on will help them with problem-solving throughout their lives. One such method we use is through Toys and Noise. Presenting numerous toys and contraptions to kids, that do one thing when you interact with something teaches them to match an initial reaction to a result. For example, if your kid presses the blue button, they will learn that it opens a blue hatch.
An Inspired Curriculum
If there’s one thing that sets us apart from other daycare or preschool options, it’s the curriculum for our Peoria infant care and other age groups. Our programs’ goal is to make learning fun while also setting your child up for future success. In doing so, we take cues from some of the world’s best education practices, including:
- HighScope Preschool Program
- Dr. Becky Bailey’s Conscious Discipline
- Don Holdaway’s Foundations of Literacy
- Brian Cambourne’s Conditions of Learning
- Howard Gardner’s Multiple Intelligence Theory
