Explore and Discover (E&D) is a Reggio Emilia-inspired childcare facility for children ages six weeks to three years. At E&D, children explore the world around them through play, and our teachers and parents participate as partners every day. E&D operates as a cooperative and families participate monthly in activities that support the program as well as attend parent meetings, parent-education seminars and special events.
The program’s curriculum is modeled after the Reggio Emilia Approach to the Education of Young Children, which encourages children to actively explore their environment and express themselves through the use of materials all within a rich social setting. Our classrooms feature low teacher-to-child ratios and are led by caring and knowledgeable early childhood education professionals. E&D is proud to offer scheduling flexibility and a strong sense of community.
We are focused on expanding Explore and Discover to a preschool program that would accommodate children ages 0-6. Do you have interest in supporting the expansion of Explore and Discover? We are looking for task force members to help start the conversation and planning around E&D’s future.
If you hold interest in joining us, the New Space Task Force meets on the 4th Monday of the month from 7-8pm. Please email ed-task-force@googlegroups.com for additional information.
