Parents are faced with difficult decisions every day, one of the most difficult being what to do about child care. There are plenty of great choices like nannies, babysitters, and daycare centers, but there’s one option that actually helps set children up for success: early learning centers. Early learning centers like KinderCare Learning Centers help kids reach key developmental milestones on their way to kindergarten and beyond.
At the Franklin Farm KinderCare Campus in Herndon, VA, and in our centers across the country, we provide positive learning experiences that set your child up for success and instill in them a lifelong love of learning. Here are three reasons you should consider an early learning program for your little one:
1. Maximize brain development: Many parents don’t realize that the majority of brain development happens before children turn five, making the first few years of your baby’s life the most important. Your child’s creative skills are taking shape at as early as six weeks old. KinderCare’s carefully designed curriculum activities help nurture those skills.
2. Encourage social skills and development: When children play with one another, they develop key social, emotional, and physical skills. KinderCare’s programs focus on fostering executive function in children – a fancy way to say your child is learning essential skills like memory, focus, impulse control, and problem solving.
3. Set your child up for success: Studies show that children enrolled in early learning programs like those offered at KinderCare can help kids be more successful when they enter school. A recent study of KinderCare’s kindergarten students shows that students in our programs were testing at first-grade levels by their seventh month of kindergarten.
