Welcome to Rivendell Education

Our belief is that each of the first five years of life represent the most crucial stages in the development of a child. The experiences children have in early childhood help shape their future success at school, in the family, within the community, and throughout life. We strive to provide quality early childhood care and enriching educational experiences which promote every child’s social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development necessary for lifelong learning.

During these formative years, children have opportunities to create, explore, and develop problem solving & personal interaction skills, while learning concepts from hands-on experiences. They develop healthy self-esteem through a balance of independent and teacher-facilitated group activities. Our educators serve as positive role models to our children and provide care that is supportive, nurturing, warm, and responsive to each child’s individual needs.

We make every effort to give our parents peace of mind that the atmosphere we provide is clean, safe, and secure for all children. Furthermore, we believe that parents and guardians are equal partners in a child's education, and we encourage them to become involved in our programs. Parents should always feel both welcomed and appreciated!

Respectfully,

Rivendell Education

Our Guiding Principles

Nurture

Supportive, warm, nurturing emotional interactions with infants and young children help to build capacities for trust, empathy, and compassion. These relationships are the most crucial primary foundation for both intellectual and social growth.

Inspire

Inspiring children is integral to ensuring their success and encouraging them to fulfil their potential. Students who are inspired by their teachers can accomplish amazing things, and that motivation for success continues throughout their life.

Empower

Guiding your child in a way that encourages their trust in their own capabilities and the ability for potential growth is essential. This empowerment creates sense of self-worth, resilience, and respect for others as well as the world around them.

Supported by These Core Values

Love

Safety & Security

Every child is a gift, and it is our job to treat each one as our own with love and kindness. Infants and toddlers need this sense of security in order to fully develop the skills that help them grow into independent, confident children.

Safety & Security

Safety is our #1 priority. We keep your child safe through a combination of staff training, procedures, and state-of-the-art technology including an electronic student tracking system and parent accessible Nanny Cams in every room.
