About Mother's Day Out

Mother's Day Out is a Christian based academic program for toddlers and preschoolers.  First Rosenberg's MDO programs is committed to better learning in a safe and secure Christian Environment.  The mission of MDO is taken from Luke 2:52, "Jesus increased in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and man." 

Mothers Day Out has been serving out community for over 25 years.  We offer classes taught by loving and well qualified Christian teachers in a safe and secure environment.  We offer many learning centers including a computer lab and spanish class for ages 3 through pre-k.  Our students attend bi-weekly chapel services with Christian music and movement as well as Bible lessons.  For all of our age groups we have a low teacher to student ratio.

Ages

• 18 months - 24 months - The development of various motor skills and the learning of the educational concepts are part of the curriculum.  This includes sharing, giving, respect and feelings.

• Terriffic Twos - We recognize the importance of structured and unstructured play for two year olds, but at the same time we realize the need and desires of children to develop certain skills at different stages.  Therefore, we have tried to develop a well-rounded curriculum that includes special programs, guest speakers and other activities.

• Wonderful Threes - Our program can be thought of as carefully selected activites and experiences intended to influence a three year olds development in their particular ways.  They are designed to enrich their outside activities.

• Fabulous Fours - The program for four year olds is designed to prepare the child socially and educationally to enter kindergarten.  We stress such concepts as fine and gross motor skills, listening skills, hand/eye coordination, colors, shapes and size, introduction to letters and numerals, and self control.

Curriculum

WEE Learn is one of the most well respected curriculums nationwide.  It helps teachers build an early childhood program which balances all areas of learning i.e., academic, spiritual, mental, emotional, and social.  Each class is structured in centers which make learning fun through experiencing rather than listening.  These experiences facilitate language, social, motor and spiritual growth.  Themes are selected by our teachers monthly which provide opportunities for the growth of each child.  Each theme ties into a Christian message which is reinforced throughout the month.  Both academic and spiritual elements are explored, experienced and reinforces.
