I have used this provider for more than 6 months

I was at HPA for quite some time with my child. It started out good at first. 3 years later I have encountered more problems than not with them. There is a constant high staff turn-over rate. The lessons are more focused on learning the bible and lessons from the bible rather than preparing the children for kindergarten. There are very few people on staff that have actual childcare degrees or are going to school for childhood education degrees. Not to mention I have picked my child up on numerous occasions with bumps, bruises, lacerations, fingernail marks and etc. I have only received maybe a handful of their incident reports for the many numerous injuries. And don't bother taking your child there if he or she has behavioral issues, they are less than ill equipped to handle anything other than the "perfect angel".

They are great teachers and they are very loving to the children and are always properly staffed which is important, it is more like a home than a daycare.

About the Provider

Mission

At HPA children are greatly encouraged to discover their individual strengths and unique talents. We believe that each child possesses a marvelous capacity to learn. Learning is best accomplished in a place that is emotionally secure, physically safe, and fun!

Philosophy

We believe…

That children are precious and must receive care from adults who are capable and caring – whose values enable them to be excellent role models.

That children should experience numerous positive learning milestones, leading to an increased sense of competence and independence.

That children’s play is extremely vital to healthy physical development, acceptable social skills, and cognitive growth.

That teachers, drawing upon their training and experience, must create and appropriate educational environment which carefully guides children from one developmental and cognitive, level to another.

That parents contribute to, and enhance the quality of care offered at HPA.

Vision

Every child that comes through our doors will be treated with love and respect so that when they leave HPA they will be able to pass on the love and respect to others that they were shown. We instill faith and a love for God into our curriculum every day.
