Early Education Center and Preschool

*****NOW OPEN IN MENOMONIE*****

 

Our mission at Hand in Hand is to provide quality child care for children of all abilities. 
We are committed to being a family focused, community based child care center.

 

Our Philosophy

Our philosophy is to view children first as children.  We recognize your child is a unique individual with a special set of interests, needs and abilities.  Our program is designed to promote your child's emotional, social, intellectual and physical development.  We encourage your child to be an active learner - to explore and move about freely in our child friendly environment.  Our program involves self paced learning.  The teachers prepare weekly lesson plans based on our theme of the week.  The plans offer a variety of activities and experiences, some available concurrently, allowing the children to select their own activities.  This opportunity to choose and make decisions encourages children to develop a positive and healthy self image and provides a foundation for positive self-esteem.

 

Our Program

We are licensed for 56 children ages 6 weeks through 12 years.  Our hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 5:30am until 6:00pm.  We are licensed by the State of Wisconsin.  Hand in Hand is based on the concept of "full inclusion", in which typically developing children are grouped with children with special needs.  Our inclusive environment gives children the opportunity to learn and accept differences among individuals.
