Welcome to Early Discoveries Family Child Care! Early Discoveries Family Child Care is a licensed family child care program located in rural Pine Island, MN.
Our mission is to provide high quality early education and care that promotes children’s learning and development through meaningful experiences and encourages a love of learning within a community of friends.
We are a 4-star Parent Aware rated early education program that meets children’s developmental needs, prepares them for lifelong success, and encourages them to develop a meaningful connection with nature.
The first five years of children's lives are the most important years of their development. During these first years, children are growing and learning more rapidly than any other time in their lives. Children's early experiences - the things they see, hear, feel, and learn - and the connections they make with others help shape the foundation for healthy living and learning throughout their lives. The child care and education program that parents choose for their family plays an important role in the growth and development of their children.
At Early Discoveries, we understand the importance of high quality early experiences in supporting children's early development and learning. Using children's interests and developmental needs, we provide learning experiences to support each child's life skill development and school readiness. We strive to cultivate positive relationships with families in our program and support them as their child's first and best teacher through open communication, support, and resources. It is our goal that through their time in our program that children develop a love for learning that will last them throughout their entire lives, know that the world is full of wonder at any age, and believe that there is always something new and exciting to experience.
