Morrow Avenue Day Care

Glenwood School houses the Morrow Avenue Day Care — a private day care that operates before-and-after-school programming and a half-day program for the school’s kindergarten students.

Our Philosophy

  • Each child is a unique individual with rights for love, respect and quality care in a safe, warm and nurturing environment.
  • We believe in the whole child—physical, emotional, social and intellectual growth.
  • Children are encouraged to develop self-confidence and a positive self-image through various activities.
  • Children have the opportunity to learn to make choices and decisions, solve problems and become independent capable thinkers.
  • Children are encouraged to share with others and respect themselves.
  • Early Childhood Educators are trained and knowledgeable in child development, in addition to being warm, loving individuals.
  • Parents play the most important role in their child’s life; they are welcomed and encouraged to become involved in their child’s daily activities.
