Mission |
Our mission is to support families. We do this by providing children with an exceptional early childhood education built upon nurturing and developing the whole child: social, emotional, cognitive and physical, and by providing families with a community support system built upon an extended family model.

Philosophy |
Kids By The Sea is committed to the belief that when children are surrounded by a trusting, loving family and community they will thrive . We believe that, in today's world, an early learning establishment can fulfill this goal and function as a tight knit community, putting our children at the forefront of our work, while supporting each other. We believe each child is entitled to respect, high expectations, and the time and space to be children. As teachers, we value the whole child. We believe in allowing children to develop deep learning habits and competencies such as initiative, creativity, problem-solving, flexibility, self-regulation, and critical thinking. We believe children learn these dispositions through purposeful play and in-depth project work.
