our nursery program
We offer a five day daycare for students 6 weeks to 2 years old. This includes our nursery, waddler room and toddler room. The Nursery is available from 7:30 a.m. to 5:25 p.m. each day. The Nursery Program’s underlying philosophy draws from Jean Piaget’s work on cognitive development, Erik Eriksson’s stages of socio-emotional development, and accepted theories of how children learn best. The approach is practical, easy-to-understand, and immediately applicable to a variety of settings. This excellent program is also based upon a framework of six different aspects including; how children develop and learn, the learning environment, what children learn, the teacher’s role, the family’s role, and research theory.
St. Joseph Catholic School is proud to offer full-time infant care for children starting at the age of six weeks. Licensed through the DHHR, our program provides high quality care for the youngest students here at St. Joseph. The program is designed to meet the individual needs of each child through developmentally appropriate practices and build strong relationships between home and school.
