I look forward to seeing you at our daycare. I am currently finishing my diploma in Early Childhood Education at Northern Lights College.
My name is Luz Mary, I am the manager and licensee at Little Genius Academy, I have a diploma in Early Childhood Education. I have many years of experience working with children, I am a caring and loving person. My goal is to help your children develop physically, cognitively, socially and emotionally while providing a safe, fun environment for them.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
We believe that each child is special and unique, and that children have a natural curiosity that is nurtured through an integrated, planned play-based learning approach. Little Genius Academy believes that working in partnership with parents is fundamental for children's optimal development and learning. Luz Mary and Vivian (Mother and daughter) carefully plan and schedule activities and experiences developmentally and age appropriate for all children under our care.
Our goal is to provide a Spanish immersion program that will be introduced to children through songs, storytelling, felt boards, games, yoga, dance, cooking, and art and also in the daily interaction with Spanish-speaking caregivers. Music, dancing and sports are incorporated into the curriculum as important tools to introduce the Spanish language. Play instruments, sing songs, have dance parties, listen to Latin children's music and introducing the basic rules of some sports like soccer, basketball, and volleyball. We will also use technology as a tool of learning by introducing the children to interactive books, games and videos.
Little Genius Academy believes in the importance of good nutrition for children, therefore we provide morning and afternoon snacks, based on Canada's food guide for children, keeping in mind the children with allergies, we offer alternative nutritive choices.
Our center is a safe, clean and happy place where children have the opportunity to learn and grow through curriculum and environments that promote physical,emotional, intellectual and social skills at their own pace.
We believe in the value of playing. We set interesting and safe environments for children to play freely (kitchen, drama, store areas) that encourage children's curiosity, creativity, confidence, independence, discovery, cooperation, and language.
Children are the future of our society, and thus we strongly believe that a quality care in their first years will make a huge impact on their adulthood. With our love, respect, education, experience, and passion we will make a difference.
