Mission Statement
At Curious Mind Childcare Center we believe that bilingual education can be an essential part of a child’s development. We are committed to new ideas, expression, and creative thinking. We follow teaching based on the theory that teachers must immerse students in rich, real interactive experiences. Play is the means by which young children learn. Social and emotional development is also advanced through fun and play. We believe that play involves more than materials and supplies but ideas and words that promote literacy and critical thinking.
