Child Assessment

To assess children’s development and growth, we use the creative curriculum “GOLD” Assessment. Assessment is an integral part of the program and guides the work we do with each child. Each lead teacher and much of the support staff have been trained and participate in ongoing training in the use and implementation of the Creative Curriculum. The purposes of assessment are 1) to identify the needs, interests, skills and abilities of the children enrolled. 2) to compare the developmental progress of the child to the Developmental Continuum ( Creative Curriculum) 3) to use the information gathered to share with the parents and to inform the curriculum and preparation of the learning environment.

As much as possible assessment information is gathered in a naturalistic (classroom) environment and on demand testing is reserved for limited usage. The assessment tool utilized is the Creative Curriculum Developmental Continuum(which assures continuity between classroom curriculum and assessment). Our Assessment process is multifaceted and includes: the individual Child Profile (checklist) and Child Progress and Planning Report, individual portfolio notebooks and journals hold sample work, photos and observations of each child; anecdotal records and other teacher created and Creative Curriculum assessment forms. The portfolios and journals are readily available in the classrooms for parents to view at any time. Anecdotal records, teacher notes and the Developmental Continuum forms are secured to protect the privacy of the family. These records are only available to the Teacher, Assistant Teacher, Director and parents. All assessment information is shared and discussed with parents during conferences in January and May when the family is offered the opportunity to also contribute comments and observations and individualized goals are established. Any parent interested in seeing copies of the Developmental continuum and Child Progress and Planning Report may do so by requesting a copy from the Director. If there are concerns about the form or technique used for Child Assessment please contact the Director. In the event of Special Needs Issues, modifications to the assessment techniques may be implemented in order to best meet the needs of the individual child.​

Potty Training: When to Start Being Concerned

potty-training-when-to-start-being-concerned

Potty training is a significant milestone in a child’s early development, marking the transition from diapers to using the toilet independently. While each child progresses at their own pace, parents often wonder, “When should I start being concerned that my child is not potty trained?”

At A Promising Tomorrow Early Care & Educational Center, we understand that each child is unique, and potty training is a personal journey. Our private pay childcare program is designed to offer personalized support to both parents and children during this crucial developmental phase. 

Here are some benefits of our program:

  • Individualized Potty Training Plans

    As part of our childcare programs, our experienced educators create individualized potty training plans based on each child’s unique needs and readiness. This personalized approach ensures your child receives the support and encouragement they require.

  • Communication Support

    Effective communication is vital during potty training. As part of our childcare in Toledo, Ohio, we emphasize language development and provide activities that encourage communication, helping children express their needs confidently.

  • Emotional Well-Being

    Potty training involves not just physical but also emotional growth. The skilled educators in our preschool in Ohio are trained to recognize and address emotional challenges, creating a supportive and nurturing environment for your child.

  • Health and Development Monitoring

    Our childcare program includes regular health and development monitoring. If there are any concerns about the physical aspects of potty training, our staff collaborates with parents to ensure comprehensive care for the child.

We are dedicated to supporting parents through their child’s potty training journey. If you have concerns or questions about your child’s potty training progress, contact us today. Our experienced educators will provide the guidance and support you need for a successful and positive experience.
