Why A Brighter Day?

Ten Reasons...


1)    Nurturing

The most important thing to the staff at A Brighter Day QLC is to ensure each child knows he/she is loved.  The teachers interact with the children, at their level, throughout the day.  The teachers do not sit on the side, out of the way, in a comfortable chair.  The low staff/child ratios allow the time for individual attention.  Children experience the most significant growth and development when they feel secure.

 2)   Curriculum 

A Brighter Day QLC teaches the Higher Reach Learning and Weekly Reader curriculum and others. It is designed to meet the needs of children as individuals and within a group atmosphere.  Our teachers are required to attend early childhood training courses throughout the year to stay current in the latest educational developments. 

3)    Health and Safety 

A Brighter Day QLC maintains very high standards for both cleanliness and safety.  Staff and children wash their hands routinely throughout the day. Teachers routinely sanitize toys and furniture between uses. Disposable gloves are worn throughout the day including; diapering, attending to children’s personal hygiene, serving snacks and food, and when medical attention is needed.  All staff are trained in CPR and first aid. We also have a Rabbit Air filtration system.

 4)   Safety and Security 

Parents can feel confident in knowing that each family has an individualized access code, which allows access to our secure facility.  We operate a secure closed circuit monitoring system with cameras set up inside and outside.

5)    Growth and Development 

A Brighter Day QLC focuses on developing the whole child which includes but is not limited to; social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development.  We support this development through open ended discussion, encouraging negotiating skills with peers, and expressing their individualism.

6)    Nutritious Meals 

We know that children gow and develop properly with delicious, nutritious food. A Brighter Day QLC encourages children’s self-help skills by participating in family style meals.  This is all part of our commitment to promoting children's good health and eating habits for mental physical development.  A Brighter Day QLC meets Federal Food Standards for nutritional hot meals at no extra cost to parents.   

7)    Natural Playground

A Brighter Day QLC strongly believes that children develop and grow through play and hands on learning experiences.  A natural playground allows children to have everyday play and learning opportunities with nature.  Our playground is an extension of our classroom.   

8)    Communication

Frequent communication between you and your child's teacher is essential. We encourage open communication on a daily basis at both drop off and pick up with the classroom teachers. A Brighter Day QLC provides an opportunity for families to participate in parent/teacher conferences twice a year.  Daily reports are provided for children under two years of age. It is important to be aware of the postings throughout the classroom and building.  A newsletter is printed, posted and sent home via e-mail and paper copy. 

9)    Respect 

A Brighter Day QLC works to establish a relationship with both their families and staff that encourages trust, open communication, and respect.

10)  You are always Welcome!
