A Few Words About Our Center

Valley Oaks Learning Center offers complete childcare for children 6 weeks to 12 years of age. While our center operates programs that are individualized in their goals and objectives, each program forms its specific aims within the contexts of these principles. The programs of the center arise from a common desire for excellence in meeting the needs of children and their families for nurturing, growth and development, relationships and understanding.

We are Quality Rated! Quality Rated is Georgia’s system to determine, improve, and communicate the quality of programs that provide child care. Similar to rating systems for restaurants and hotels, Quality Rated assigns one, two or three stars to early education and school-age care programs that meet or exceed the minimum state requirements. By participating in Georgia’s voluntary Quality Rated program, programs make a commitment to work continuously to improve the quality of care they provide to children and families.

Quality Rated gives parents and families’ greater confidence in their child care choice because independent, credentialed experts in early education have assessed whether programs follow best practices, such as:

• Employing qualified and well-trained teachers
• Providing a safe, healthy and caring environment
• Implementing individualized instruction
• Offering a curriculum that prepares children for kindergarten
• A focus on both active learning and social-emotional development
• Engaging families
• Providing a low teacher-student ratio

Our Philosophy

Our Philosophy is to provide the perfect balance of learning and play in a nurturing environment. Our goal is to stimulate the child’s senses and guide them as they explore their world. We work with the individual learning style of each child to build their confidence and enthusiasm for acquiring knowledge.
