Our Setting

Welcome to Jackson Child Care, where the inside and outside environments are thoughtfully designed to encourage enriching and fun activities. Each day, we engage your child in guided, child-centered activities that promote socialization, safe play, and school readiness, respecting and nurturing their unique learning style and pace and helping them build essential learning and life skills.

Our setting has creative, interactive toys and props that ignite your child’s curiosity, creativity, and imagination. We focus on fostering the development of self-regulation skills, ensuring that your child can manage their emotions and behaviors effectively. Whether indoors or outdoors, our spaces are crafted to inspire exploration and joy, making every moment a joyful learning adventure.

Indoor Play

Our indoor areas are secure, with an off-site monitoring service, ensuring your child’s safe and protected environment. We hold our setting to the highest cleanliness and safety standards, providing a secure and healthy environment for your child.

  • Developing an Emergency Plan: A comprehensive plan is in place and shared with all parents to ensure everyone knows the procedures in case of an emergency.
  • Securing Potential Hazards: Any items or substances that could harm a child are carefully locked away and inaccessible.
  • Conducting Regular Drills: We participate in monthly fire drills and quarterly shelter-in-place drills, a testament to our commitment to your child’s safety and our preparedness for any situation.
  • Maintaining Safety Equipment: Smoke alarms are checked and maintained regularly to ensure they are always in working order.

Our commitment to safety and cleanliness ensures a nurturing environment where your child can play and learn with peace of mind, fostering their emotional well-being.

 

Outdoor Play

Play is essential to the development of children’s coordination, as well as their gross and fine motor skills. Our fenced-in play areas have diverse equipment, including a playground structure, swings, slides, and more, all designed to encourage gross motor skill play. Racing, climbing, running, rolling, and other age-appropriate challenges help children develop strength and coordination.

We understand the importance of variety in play. To enhance motor skills and muscle coordination, we maintain a collection of gross motor materials, including hula-hoops and various balls (hop balls, footballs, baseballs, basketballs, etc.). For fine motor development, we provide multiple materials such as building kits, games, sand and water tables, and sorting kits, ensuring that your child always has a new and exciting activity to engage with.

We foster physical activity and promote healthy habits in young children through active, outdoor play.
