At Umpqua Wonders Academy, our quality child care program is centered around play-based learning, inclusion, and social-emotional development. We believe that children learn best through play, exploring the world around them, and engaging in hands-on activities. Our program celebrates diversity by creating a welcoming environment where children from all backgrounds feel included and valued. We prioritize social-emotional development by teaching children important skills such as empathy, communication, and problem-solving, helping them build strong relationships by implementing conscious discipline and navigate their emotions effectively. By promoting self-regulation and emotional intelligence, it helps individuals develop better relationships and communication skills. This approach also fosters a positive classroom or work environment by encouraging empathy, problem-solving, and less reactive behaviors.
