Safari Childcare
Our Teachers
"A successful team
beats with one heart"
The key component in accomplishing our mission is choosing individuals that can easily blend in with our extended family. We not only seek educationally qualified staff, but also reach out to those with unique characteristics that truly set them apart from all others.
Patience, compassion, understanding, and a genuine love for all children are fundamental traits for meeting our children’s needs. These select individuals who try to find the positive side to every situation truly excel in our environment. Trustworthiness and strong communication skills are what allow parents to feel comfortable leaving their child in our care, so we look for examples of these qualities throughout our selection process.
Self-motivation, teamwork, commitment to quality, and effective problem-solving allows our teachers to meet their own personal commitments, while ensuring each of the children’s developmental milestones are met. These characteristics positively impact the children within the classroom, and extend to our parents and staff members. Safari Childcare carefully hand picks these top-notch Early Childhood professionals; professionals that meet our high standards of education, experience, and character that both you and your child will trust, respect, and bond with. Educators that your child will fondly remember in the years to come.
