HOPES & DREAMS PRESCHOOL

Hopes & Dreams provides an educational play based environment for children ages 6 weeks through 12 years old. Our teachers plan developmentally appropriate activities based on the interests and needs of the children. All activities are also based on the Ohio Early Learning Content Standards to ensure that your children are meeting all of the important skills needed for development. We strive to help children learn and grow in a way that is fun to give the children a love for education, while learning very important lessons at the same time. Research has shown that “By taking a closer look at children’s play, we see that it does more than stimulate physical, social-emotional, and creative development. Play is also the primary means by which children explore the world, investigate its properties, and build an understanding about how the world works. Through this play, children actively pose problems, explore solutions, and develop understandings of real world concepts of form and function. By comparing and contrasting information gained from each new experience to what they already know, they are actively constructing their knowledge of the way the world works.” All activities are designed to adequately nurture the emotional and intellectual growth of our kids while in preschool and daycare. Through stimulating situations and hands-on learning opportunities, young children are free to develop into bright young minds. We are proud to announce that our center is 4 Star rated through Step Up to Quality! We are an established childcare and learning center in Austintown, Ohio. We opened in 2004 with a vision and passion to educate, love, and take the best care of children while they are away from home, and these still hold true today.
