Our Philosophy and Goals

We believe every child is unique and special!

It is The Tigers’ Den CCC’s aim to help your child develop spiritually, intellectually, physically, creatively, socially and emotionally for school and life in a safe and wholesome setting.

Your child will be provided many opportunities and a variety of enriching learning experiences promoting development in areas of: social, and emotional, language arts, problem solving, science and mathematics, fine motor ability, physical fitness, music and movement, creativity, and self-help skills. Your child will be supported to learn and explore in these areas in order to achieve sound growth during this period of rapid development. The Tigers’ Den CCC is a support for your child’s first teacher, you, the parent/guardian. We want to help you in your quest to encourage your child to have fun learning and become excited about school. The Tigers’ Den CCC staff will encourage your child to be inquisitive and willing learners.

We seek to provide an appropriate atmosphere and optimal learning environment for your child, allowing them to grow at their own rate. We want each child to:

1. Enjoy many experiences of being loved, understood, accepted, and successful; to find out that he/she is a person valued for his unique being –a child of God.
2. Develop a good self-image.
3. Be involved in developmentally appropriate activities that nurture their curiosity and support their learning.
