Finding qualified childcare that meets the needs of your family can be a difficult decision. However the decision can be easy when you can find a childcare center that provides an affordable, reliable, and a caring environment. Since 1991 The Blooming Pot Daycare and Learning Center has provided these services to the Chattanooga community.
Hopefully by reading what The Blooming Pot offers you will be convinced that this is the place where they would want to see your child develop their learning skills.
Our facilities operating hours are from 6:45a.m. – 5:30p.m., Monday – Friday. These hours are idea for parents who have an early or late morning shift. Part-time and flexible care is available to parents who only need occasional care as well. Because breakfast is the most important meal of the day, we serve breakfast from 7:30a.m. – 8:00a.m. Lunch is served from 11:30a.m. –12:00p.m., and the staff encourages the parents to come and join their child for lunch. Not to mention, the meals are made fresh daily and provides a child with valuable nutrients. A well-nourished child is able to think better and with the curriculum The Blooming Pot offers this is important.
The Blooming Pot curriculum is from the High Reach program and is state regulated and approved by daycare licensing. Our well-educated staff has college degrees ranging from early childhood education to biology. The teachers have a heart of compassion, are patient, and cater to each child’s specific learning needs. Children are organized according to their age. The ratio of adults to children are 6:1, therefore no child is left unattended. Majority of the staff has been employed since 1991, so there is not an excessive turnover rate of staff.
The Blooming Pot also requires that each staff member complete at least 20 plus hours of continuing education workshops and First Aid and CPR training prior to beginning childcare. In the event of an unexpected emergency a parent can be confident that their child will have emergency help available by trained professionals!
Extra-curricular activities are provided by The Blooming at little or no additional cost, so that each child is able to participate equally. These activities include: karate, tumbling, creative movement, and Spanish classes. These activities are enriching mentally and physically as a child develops.
We believe affordable childcare is important, that is why we offer a competitive weekly tuition fee. We also believe a child-care provider should be reliable which is why The Blooming Pot is open year round, not just during typical school months. (We only close during major holidays.) A schedule is always provided in advance on the days that the facility is closed. The schedule is set and seldom adjusted but ample time will be given to the client beforehand if any changes are made.
Affordable, reliable, and caring are what this establishment has provided since 1991. The decision to choose The Blooming Pot Daycare and Learning Center is rewarding and assures parents that their child is provided with the best quality of childcare.
