We pride ourselves on providing a loving, safe, and enriched learning environment. All of our teachers are fully dedicated and very educated when it comes to working with children.
Discovery Gardens has low turnover in both staffing and enrollment – just one quality indicator that shows we must be doing something right!
Discovery Gardens’ highly qualified staff meets and exceeds all of Oregon’s Child Care Division requirements. Before employment, all potential applicants complete a working interview, so that we can see how they interact with our children, families and staff. Upon employment, each staff member undergoes a 30-day training regimen at our facility. During this time, they learn our various programs and philosophies. They also become acquainted with the children and their families, to ensure we meet the expectations that each family has for their child’s care.
In addition to gaining certification in CPR, First Aid, and Child Abuse and Neglect Prevention, Discovery Gardens’ staff also attend numerous workshops throughout the year to stay current with the most effective methods of enhancing a child’s development.
Our staff are friendly, patient and nurturing. We work closely with families to ensure that their child is receiving care that meets his or her personal needs and development. Anytime is a good time to voice concerns or ask questions about your child’s or family’s needs.
Discovery Gardens hosts special events on a regular basis that are designed to allow parents to interact and communicate with teachers and other Discovery Gardens families. We understand that every family is unique and has busy schedules, and we also respect that each child moves at a different pace. We enjoy helping, guiding and encouraging you and your family in any way we can.
Communication is our number one policy! We help support your family and enable your child in their learning and growth.
