Our Program

 

Each child is unique and such uniqueness should be cherished.

LCNS is a place where you will see children playing and engaged in active learning.

We provide a positive learning environment for each child that meets, enhances and extends their level of development. Each child is unique and that uniqueness is fostered. Through interest based play experiences and the guidance of our professionally trained teachers, your child will be exposed to situations  that will stimulate:

• Curiosity, initiative, and independence
• Self-esteem and problem solving skills
• Interaction with and respect for others
• Physical activity that develops gross-motor skills
• Fine-motor development
