About Us

Where Play Sparks
Growth and Discovery

We establish a foundation of play sprinkled with activities that introduce vocabulary and concepts through singing, block play, art materials, time spent outside, pretend play, games, puzzles and literacy skills all to support topics near and dear to young children.

 

What sets us apart

Discover, Play, and Grow with PlayTivity

Daily
Music

Voice is the first and easiest instrument for kids to learn how to use!  Children will be singing and moving every day with live guitar- learning new songs, movements and concepts related to the songs.  Kids come home singing and teaching their songs to their family.

On Site
Director

Our program has one classroom with the director who is onsite and in the classroom. This means the person who can make changes based on kids needs can do so in real time.  

Our Parent Communication

Is unparalleled and not limited to the work day hours.  If you need information or have a concern, just reach out and you will get insightful info that will give you the tools you need as you share with us your thoughts so we can accommodate your child. Margaret is always available.

Dedicated to Shaping Curious Learners Through Play

Mission

Playtivity Early Learning provides young families with excellent early childhood programming so that both parents and children can be knowledgable, confident and passionate lifelong learners

Vision

We meet children where they are, meeting the needs of the individual within the context of the group experience. Our goal is to work with all children in our care to acquire and practice new skills and abilities by working with their preferred or stronger areas to further develop areas that may cause frustrations.

Philosophy

We believe that all children are capable and all families know their child best. We work to customize our general knowledge of child development so that each child experiences personal success. We believe that parents and teachers will learn from each other how best to meet the needs of the child. Play is the primary route of how children acquire concept and knowledge, followed closely by teacher led activities based on kids interests
