Philosophy: 
JCC Early Childhood Services’ philosophy and curriculum, the Learning with Love Experience, is based on a combination of several components that include cutting-edge brain research, developmentally appropriate practice, multiple intelligences theory, emergent curriculum, educational inspiration from Reggio Emilia, Italy, and the integration of secular and Jewish learning. The JCC Learning with Love Experience prepares children for their next formal educational step and helps children achieve their full potential by focusing on the necessary development of social, perceptual, motor, language, pre-math, and pre-writing skills. The Learning with Love Experience: • Prepares your child for a lifetime of learning • Nurtures each child’s unique learning style, interests, and abilities • Creates a safe place for fun and positive social experiences • Teaches Jewish values, concepts, and traditions

Reggio, child-initiated, creative curriculum
