About Us
Our goal at every Tiny Tots Early Learning facility is to give every child a chance to develop an interest in learning, by creating environments that are safe and provide challenging and fun activities for all ages. We strive to create opportunities for families to promote language, plan community projects, and improve programs and curriculum. As a result, we are supporting every child’s social, emotional, cognitive, and physical growth.
Mission
We believe that teaching young children is one of the most important and rewarding professions to be in. Tiny Tots Learning Center provides safe, affordable, quality child care in Lapwai and Kamiah. In doing so, we support families in their efforts to work, attend school and training while giving all children an opportunity to build friendships and learn in a relaxed, fun learning environment. It is of utmost importance to us to maintain a stable, consistent environment that reflects the core values of the families we serve.
Vision
Our vision is to offer child care services to support working parents in rural areas in our region.
Philosophy
The staff at Tiny Tots Learning Center believes that a child’s social and emotional well-being is a critical part of a child’s development. Through adult guidance and association with playmates, the child is being prepared for self-control at a pace he/she can internalize. We attempt to help a child become more aware of his/her peer group, while learning to respect the rights of others and to conform to minor regulations
