Our Classroom

All three year old classrooms are set up with unique learning centers that encourage children to be self-sufficient while fostering an understanding of basic concepts. Our child-centered room arrangement allows children to move freely from one interest center to the next, giving them the opportunity to make plans and choices in their environment

Curriculum

We choose broad themes to explore that allow each classroom to individualize their study based on the teacher and children’s interests and questions. A study of animals for example, in one room may center on animals at the zoo while another classroom may focus on pets and how to care for animals in your home.  This type of individualization allows teachers to modify curriculum and build on what is exciting to their group.

A Day in the Life

We believe in a balanced day for your child. We create the perfect mix between quiet and active times, large and small group learning, child initiated activities and teacher facilitated activities to create a day full of learning and fun!

Meals & Snacks

Children who are with us all day enjoy daily, nutritious snacks and meals. Besides a balanced meal, we also focus on table manners, independence and good eating habits.

Circle Time

Every day we gather together and share stories, talk about our day and plan our learning journey. Being together allows us to get to know our friends, sing songs and play learning games. We assign helpers for the day, give a weather report and take a look at our calendar.

🎉 25 YEARS IN CHILDCARE! 🎉

Today, we celebrated something truly special — 25 years of Wyatt Graves dedicating his life to children, families, and early childhood education. ❤️

What started 25 years ago as a dream and a passion has grown into something so much bigger than any of us could have imagined.

Today, we celebrated where it all began, the journey along the way, and where that journey has brought us today — Fundamentals Early Learning Center. 🏫✨

Fundamentals is so much more than a building. It’s the laughter in our classrooms, the teachers who pour their hearts into their students, the families who trust us with their most precious gifts, and the countless children whose lives have been touched along the way.

Every classroom, every milestone, every teacher, every family, and every child is a little piece of the story that began 25 years ago. ❤️

Wyatt, your vision, dedication, and commitment to early childhood education have created something truly special. We are so proud to celebrate YOU, your accomplishments, and the incredible journey that brought us here.

Here’s to 25 years of changing lives, building relationships, creating memories, and growing a legacy. 🥂

Happy 25 years in childcare, Wyatt!
We can’t wait to see what the next chapter holds! 💙💛

I've been part of Wyatt's world since 2020! We out ran the pandemic together in my first months there!

🎉✨ 6.58… AND WE’RE STILL CELEBRATING! ✨🎉

There are some moments as an educator that make you stop and say, “WOW. Look at what you’re doing.” And this is one of them. 🥹💚

Gabby & Shelby earned a 6.58 on their CLASS observation! 👏👏

That number represents so much more than a score. It represents the little moments that happen all day long — the conversations, the encouragement, the curiosity, the laughter, the questions, the patience, and the intentional ways they help their children learn and grow. 🌱🧠❤️

It represents teachers who aren’t just in the classroom… but are truly present WITH their children.

And at Fundamentals, that’s something worth celebrating! 🌈

Gabby & Shelby — we see your hard work, we see your dedication, and we see the impact you’re making.

⭐️ 6.58 is a BIG deal.
💚 YOU are a BIG deal.
🎉 And we are incredibly proud of you!

Keep shining, ladies! 🌟👏
