Welcome - Here is a sneak peak into Positive Start!
Children learn through play and benefit from a structured yet flexible schedule. Positive Start Family Child Care promotes the children’s ability to develop their own imaginations, to select the types of activities that match with their interests, and to learn to interact with others.
At Positive Start we provide for children from "walking age" and up. We help children learn to interact with various ages giving them a sense of family structure. Children need to feel good about themselves! Positive guidance is used to enhance a child's feelings of self worth. A "you can do it, give it a try, positive mental attitude" approach is encouraged among the children. A happy, healthy, comfortable and safe, child appropriate atmosphere with all the comforts of a family home is at the foundation of our philosophy.
Children learn to respect the the things that don’t belong to them and to care about other's rights and property. Children learn that creative works and efforts of others are valuable and are to be respected, not destroyed or altered.
Television watching is discouraged. Children need all the time they can get to enhance their own creativity and develop their own imaginations. Outdoor play is encouraged daily.
Positive Start is “the best of both worlds” – a small preschool setting in a home atmosphere nestled in Union Village of North Smithfield, Rhode Island. This is your child’s “home away from home.”
