FranDelJA's philosophy is a multi-layered approach built upon the foundation that each child deserves a warm, stimulating environment
that fosters positive self-esteem and develops the love of learning. We recognize that children are made up of their unique heritage
woven together with individual developmental strengths and challenges.
We approach all learning components with the knowledge that children's play is their work. |

A study funded by the National Institutes of Health showed a link between Child Care and Academic Achievement:
Teens who were in high-quality child care settings as young children scored slightly higher on measures of academic and cognitive achievement and were slightly
less likely to report acting-out behaviors than peers who were in lower-quality child care arrangements during their early years, according to the latest analysis of
a long-running study funded by the National Institutes of Health.
FranDelJA is a child care facility that is recognized for providing high-quality child care. Our goal is for each child to
reach and maximize their full creative, and cognitive potential and for that to become the bridge to their success.
