We're Happy To Help - Royal Child Daycare and Preschool

When Dorothy Loman of Royal Child Daycare in Columbus, Ohio contacted me about the needs at her center, I knew right away I wanted to help them. Royal Child Care is located in a low income neighborhood, but they’ve managed to stay in operation since 1995. What impressed me was that they believe in helping children explore the world beyond the limitations of their often perilous neighborhood. Their center environment is warm and inviting. In Ms. Loman’s words, “we are trying to make the children feel comfortable and secure in their classrooms.” Royal has been an NAEYC Accredited Center for the past 8 years. Ms. Loman goes on: “Being an accredited center is a goal we worked very hard to attain and maintain throughout these past 8 years. We became a One-Star Step Up To Quality center 3 years ago, which that means our program is aware that there are guidelines and standards that identify the experiences children should have at each milestone. But that wasn’t enough. Our center worked so hard at improving the lives of the children here we are now a Two-Star Step-Up to Quality Center. Hopefully; they will be inspired and encouraged to explore and set their sights beyond their experiences here.”

Teachers’ School Supply was happy to help Royal with a tumbling mat and badly needed classroom furniture. How can we help you?
