Research-based & child-centered approach to educating the whole child & nurturing their interests. Meaningful and immersive learning experiences that develop a foundation for a lifetime of learning success. Cobb Childcare and Preschool is an emergent program and responds to each child's interests. Our practice is open-ended and self-directed, depending on teacher initiative and intrinsic motivation, lending itself to a play-based environment.
An emergent approach emerges from the children, but not only from the children. Our curriculum emerges from the play of children and the play of teachers and is both rigorous and authentically child-led. Learn how our program for toddlers supports their newfound independence, language and social skills!

Our Approach
Report
An emergent approach involves the whole child, meaning all realms of development and learning; cognitive, social, emotional, and physical. What does that mean in practice? In practice, we provide a wide variety of resources in support of a child's emerging interests. We use observation to guide as we learn alongside the children.
