Growth Inc. has a dedicated staff with experience and training in early childhood education. In addition to degree requirements, each staff member must have 15 hours of continuing education training yearly, including CPR and First Aid certification. Child to staff ratios meet or exceed DCFS (Department of Children & Family Services) licensing standards in each classroom.
Our teachers are required to turn in weekly lesson plans based on the center's curriculum topics. These daily lesson plans cover all components of early childhood education including art, math, science, language, music, fine motor skills, gross motor skills, dramatic play, and open centers to explore at the child's own pace.

Our Mission Statement
Growth Inc. strives to provide a variety of opportunities for young children...
To develop PHYSICALLY a child needs to exercise all parts of their body and get plenty of sunshine and fresh air;
To develop SOCIALLY a child needs to interact, play and talk with other children and adults to gain independence and self-discipline with encouragement and guidance.
To develop EMOTIONALLY a child needs to learn to express their feelings, to love, be loved, and to feel good about themselves;
To develop INTELLECTUALLY a child needs to be encouraged to discover new things, solve problems, and to verbally express their feelings and ideas.
These components of the Growth Inc. Mission Statement are put into practice daily by a dedicated and caring staff!
