Program Information

Guidance:	When children are struggling we use redirection, positive reinforcement, referrals to outside services if needed and our relationships with families to help guide the children to have successful days.	Program:	The goal of the Vermont Achievement Center Early Education and Care program is to promote independence, self-esteem and growth in the areas of motor skills and language development, play skills, social competency and school readiness. Every child is a gift to their family, friends, and community. Children warrant respect dignity, safety, love and knowledge. Quality caregiving nurtures each child and their family to reach their full potential through promotion of their individuality, culture, relationships, strengths, and genuine value. Play-based education provides opportunities for chidlren to safely experiement with the world and to experience the joy of pursuing one's passions and talents.
