Woodside believes children can develop independence in a caring environment. Emphasis is placed upon developing cooperation, creativity, communication, peaceful conflict resolution, fine and gross motor skills, and attentiveness with focus on Kindergarten readiness.

Children are encouraged to follow their own interests, as well as try new activities. They are also encouraged to work together as a group, learning to follow a daily routine.

POTTY TRAINING
Children in our 3 year-old program are NOT required to be potty trained. Children may be sent to school in pull-ups. They will be encouraged to use the bathroom with teacher and parent supervision but without any physical help.
If there is an accident that requires immediate attention, the child's parent(s) will be contacted to change the child at school.
