We’re an Early Achievers Program!

At Happy Day Childcare & Preschool, we are proud participants in Early Achievers, Washington State’s Quality Rating and Improvement System (QRIS), supported by the Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF).

Being a part of Early Achievers means we are committed to providing high-quality care that helps every child learn, grow, and thrive. As an Early Achievers provider, we:

• Receive ongoing coaching and training to support best practices in early learning
   
• Use individualized learning plans to meet each child’s unique needs
   
• Foster strong family partnerships and open communication
   
• Create engaging learning environments rooted in play, curiosity, and nature
   
• Participate in assessments and improvement planning to ensure quality remains high
   

Research shows that children in high-quality early learning programs are more prepared for kindergarten and future school success. Early Achievers gives families peace of mind knowing their child is in a program that:

• Follows developmentally appropriate practices
   
• Values child safety and emotional well-being
   
• Encourages creativity, social skills, and lifelong learning
   

Joining Early Achievers reflects our passion for excellence and continuous growth as educators. We’re always learning—just like your children!
