ABOUT US
    Rainbow World Preschool Center is a fully licensed day care and preschool learning center operating under the guidelines and supervision of the New Jersey Division of Youth and Family Services. We utilize the educational facilities of the Jewish Community Center, although we are non-sectarian. Our aim is to provide a stimulating and safe environment for children to learn and grow in well balanced programs that combine learning and play. Since being established in 1986, Rainbow World has provided quality care for children of working parents as well as preschool classes for the important early childhood years.

OUR PHILOSOPHY
    In a caring and positive atmosphere, we create a warm and happy place for preschoolers to learn.  As we bridge the gap from home to school, we guide children to a strong self-image while building social skills in a school setting.
    Sensory, motor, perceptual and language skills are introduced through materials and activities, which are both child-centered and teacher-directed.  Work is planned which emphasizes the process rather than the product, fostering a sense of accomplishment and pride.
    Based on our strong belief in the theory that children learn though play, classroom routines encourage active involvement, meaningful experimentation and reinforcement through repetition.  Schedules are designed with a balance of structure and free choice, as well as active and quiet times.
    Recognizing that children grow in predictable stages, we treat each child as an individual, working from the level each child has attained and moving forward a step at a time.  We teach a love of learning by allowing children to experience their own stage of development and helping them to feel success without pressure.
We value the active involvement of parents in our program.      Parents may gain valuable insights and techniques from the expertise of the staff, and at the same time, share their own talents and interests to maintain the excellent quality of education that we strive for here at Rainbow World.  School then becomes a shared experience, which hopefully will continue throughout each child’s educational process.  We feel that it is a positive way to support parents in their children’s learning and development.

OUR STAFF
    Our staff members all have had experience working with preschool children.  Each center’s curriculum is lead by an extremely qualified certified teacher or head teacher.  Within each classroom a capable and warm teacher- assistant assists the teacher. Staff members are sensitive to children’s different personalities, needs, and moods.
    Each person has been very carefully chosen because of his or her outstanding abilities and experience and for their deep concern for children.  On-going training programs are provided and our staff/child ratios conform to state regulations.
