Around The Korner Child Care Center

Overview

Around the Korner Child Care Center is one of several locations operated by a nonprofit organization focused on early childhood education. The organization serves children from birth through five years and operates multiple neighborhood sites.

Approach and curriculum

Instruction emphasizes hands-on experiences and developmentally appropriate activities that adapt as children’s abilities and interests change. Staff post daily activity plans in classrooms and prioritize self-help skills, social skills, language development, physical activity, creative expression, and respect for cultural diversity.

Staff and ratios

Staff are described as experienced early childhood educators who participate in ongoing in-service training and professional development.
CPR training and personnel immunization records are maintained for staff.
Stated staff-to-child ratios are 1:3 for infants, 1:4 for toddlers, and 1:8 for preschool-age children.

Health, safety and policies

The centre maintains daily health screening on arrival and a list of exclusion criteria for illness. Medication must be provided in original containers with written instructions and is stored securely. Regular disaster drills are conducted, emergency supplies are kept on site, and staff receive first-aid/CPR and emergency-response training. The program enforces sign-in/sign-out procedures, authorized-person pick-up requirements, and a late-pickup policy; children left beyond published pickup times may trigger procedures that include contacting emergency contacts and, if necessary, authorities.
