Regular Program Hours

The Sherman Day Care Center is a state licensed four star CCA child care center. State requirements are met or exceeded to provide high quality care for all children.

We believe young children learn best through play, and our program is designed to provide children with daily learning experiences to enhance their intellectual and physical development and to encourage positive social interactions. Children are kept busy in story time, music, art, block and science centers, with puzzles and small muscle manipulative activities, and outside climbing, running and general fun.

Caregivers plan and implement daily activities based on the overall curriculum goals, as well as the specific needs of individual children. Staff members respond to each child in a positive manner appropriate to the child’s age and developmental level, implementing positive guidance techniques to encourage developmentally appropriate social behaviors.
