About
A Child's Garden Preschool and Child Care Programs offers toddler, 2-year-old, and 3-year-old classes, as well as extended care. The program also offers a summer camp program and accepts CCS payments, Childcare Aware payments, and MCCYN payments. It specializes in the care of children with food allergies and operates as a peanut and tree nut free facility.
• Ages: 1–4 years old
• Schedule: Morning preschool classes from 9 a.m. to noon, with extended care options from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and varied attendance schedules from two half-days to five full days
Founded in 2001 as a sister school to Wee Lad & Lassie, A Child's Garden focuses on the very young learner and maintains low adult-child ratios and small group sizes. The program is now offering grant funded Pre-K 4's and 3's. Teachers are degreed, teach using the principles of developmentally appropriate practice, and are committed to continued growth as professionals to improve the learning of all students. The mission of A Child's Garden is to provide a stimulating, developmentally appropriate environment that enhances the child’s natural curiosity and desire to learn in an atmosphere of loving care, with individual attention to children’s needs and learning styles, and with parents respected as partners in the learning community. A Child's Garden is Maryland Department of Education accredited and has a 5 Check Maryland EXCELS rating, and in 2015 it became one of the only early childhood programs in Anne Arundel County to be awarded the highest rating (check level 5) under the Maryland EXCELS program. In 2005, it joined the very few independent preschool programs to be accredited by the Maryland Department of Education Early Childhood Accreditation Project.
