In the year 2000, Room to Grow became inspired by the Reggio Emilia Approach to Early Education, and we have been incorporating this philosophy into our programs ever since. The Reggio Emilia Approach is innovative and inspiring. It values the child as strong, capable and resilient – rich with wonder and knowledge. All children, even the very young, bring with them deep curiosity and potential. This innate curiosity drives their interest to understand their world and their place within it. Our staff help set up activities and the environment so that children can explore their interests and developmental needs. We have books and materials to help train our new staff members so they can implement this style of teaching.
