My First Place is inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy and we are committed to providing and inspiring a love of learning from the early years. A child has a hundred languages and a hundred ways to express, learn and play. At My First Place we communicate with the children in English and Spanish and encourage families with multiple languages to continue the learning within our school. We designed our school to offer a natural, diverse, creative, clean and safe environment to inspire our children to have a deep understanding and respect of the power and complexity of nature and the world around them. The materials we use have aesthetic qualities to inspire the children to see the beauty in everything. Fresh flowers in the classrooms help the children understand and reflect on the beauty of nature and to open communications with their five senses. We value the child’s voice and see them as capable and strong and through their eyes welearn about their view of the world through play.
