Our Mission:
To provide high quality childcare using developmentally appropriate practices and to develop the whole, healthy child in a nurturing environment.
Why Ashland Children's Garden?
Ashland Children's Garden provides childcare in a warm, nurturing environment. Our atmosphere is designed to provide professional, high-level care in an environment that will be comfortable for children.
Our curriculum is designed to promote school readiness for every child. We offer a "best practice," developmentally appropriate curriculum based on the Missouri Early Learning Standards and current research in the fields of child development and early childhood education. Our director and associate director are both certified in Early Childhood Education with over 35 combined years of teaching experience, and all of our lead teachers have years of experience in the field.
We provide a wide variety of healthy, minimally processed foods for every meal and snack. We are proud to offer a nut-free facility and provide accommodations for food allergies and for children with special diets, such as vegetarian diets or diets with religious restrictions.
At Ashland Children's Garden, we welcome children and families with a wide variety of abilities, cultures, languages, and belief systems with open arms. We believe that all children and families are important, and we recognize, respect, and welcome everyone's differences.
