Mission

Inventive Minds is dedicated to the physical, emotional, social and intellectual development of infants and young children. We recognize the critical importance of early intervention and development, and the pivotal role of educators and parents in this process. We endeavor to equip children with developmental experiences that enrich their lives in meaningful and lasting ways through play, exploration, and observation. We provide our clients with knowledge of such development and know-how of when and how to interact with children through developmentally appropriate educational practice. This means that the materials and interactions are stage-appropriate, safe, interesting and challenging yet achievable for the children.

Our Philosophy

Inventive Minds philosophy is shaped largely through the theories and related research of the world-renowned Swiss child development authority, Jean Piaget.  Our constructivist philosophy rests on the fact that the first years are critical to future development. We realize that young children develop best through exploration and play, with great latitude in choosing what they are interested in, and in an atmosphere of love, caring, and encouragement. As such, we offer the most developmentally appropriate educational programs available – an active, participatory, engaging, and fascinating environment for infants, toddlers and preschoolers. We strive to promote an attitude that encourages children to be active — observe and learn; explore and discover, manipulate and invent.
