Our Philosophy

It is our goal to create and maintain a warm, nurturing environment that supports the naturally paced emotional, social, physical, and intellectual growth of each child. In our program learning is integrated into the daily routine, and playing is not separated from learning; playing is learning. We are committed to implementing some of Piaget’s theory of Cognitive Development in our childcare Program.  We believe in Piaget’s educational approach, in that children have the opportunity to explore and experience a variety of activities. Located inside a fitness facility makes us unique to other centers. It allows us to incorporate fitness and health into the lives of our children at a very early age, which is proven to carry over into their teenage years and adulthood.

Our Curriculum

FitKids Childcare implements the Creative Curriculum approach in supporting the developmental needs of the children in our care.  We use the Creative Curriculum as a guide when creating lesson plans, holding parent/teacher conferences and organizing our classrooms to provide a variety of activities to meet each area of a child’s development.

What Makes Us Unique?

Located inside a fitness facility sets FitKids Childcare apart from other area childcare programs.  On a daily basis children in our care have access to the club’s Yoga Studio, climbing wall and open studios.  The children enjoy gross motor activities daily no matter what the weather. Through the use of RVC’s facility we are able to encourage team-building activities, large motor coordination and promote healthy lifestyle choices.  Children have the support of our FitKids Childcare staff to encourage, motivate and promote exercise through various planned activities.
