We're proud to announce that we will be opening our doors soon! Stay tuned for updates by visiting our website. Apple Blossom Preschool and Early Learning Centre is a holistic, play-based day care centre located in beautiful Barrington, Rhode Island. Founded on the LifeWays principles of care, Apple Blossom provides high-quality, relationship-based care to children aged 0-5. At Apple Blossom, a child's early years are recognized as valid and important times of all their own, rather than as stepping-stones to academic study. A child's initial years have tremendous value; during this early time, children build a foundation for their cognitive, emotional, and motor skills. Recognizing this, LifeWays caretakers seek to holistically nurture the children they look after. In a LifeWays program, life itself is the curriculum; our focus is not on instructing, but on nurturing. We incorporate life's daily routines into our teachings, thereby providing ample opportunities for emotional, creative, and interpersonal development in a caring, home-like environment. The LifeWays model of childcare is based both off of generations of lived experience and proven scientific study, and is inspired by the work and philosophies of Dr. Rudolph Steiner. Steiner, a noted 20th-century philosopher, conceptualized the Waldorf educational model as a means to holistically develop a child's intellectual, creative, and artistic capabilities by engaging every part of the child's brain. By engaging with Steiner's philosophies, LifeWays preschools ultimately seek to provide children with the early confidence and emotional security they need to develop their greater cognitive and emotional capacities in later stages of childhood.For more information on our philosophy of care and programming, visit our website.
