WHY TRL?
Our Teachers
TRL is proud to have a dedicated team of teachers and helpers who are passionate about providing a personal experiential learning environment for your child while ensuring the curriculum is followed at the highest standard. Through nurturing guidance, they inspire and encourage individuality in every T.R.L child. Their nurturing and attentive approach offers each child a home-away-from-home experience.
Whether you have a budding engineer, athlete, or artist, our variety of fitness, movement and sports programs teamed with a vast selection of academic programming provide your child with all we can to ensure that their future education gets off to a great start!
All of our instructors and support staff are professionally trained in early childhood education, have a background and vulnerability check and are first aid certified.
Our staff is absolutely second to none! Our dedicated teachers work as a team to provide the highest level of care and developmentally appropriate programs for children possible. Besides academics and experience, each staff member is chosen for their energy, creativity, enthusiasm, and, of course, for their genuine love of teaching young children. We have numerous staff who are trained in medication administration and the use of Epi-Pens, and they are all certified in First Aid and CPR. We go beyond state licensing requirements by doing our own criminal conviction and background checks before a staff member starts working with children and we follow it up every year after that as well.
Our teachers are required to have formal education in the field of early childhood education and they stay current in the field by participating in at least 20 hours of continuing education each year. For this level of professionalism, they are compensated at the highest end of the pay scale for childcare providers in the region, and they are provided with a comprehensive benefits package, including life insurance, tuition reimbursement, and much more. Our low turn-over rate is just one of the benefits of having such a positive work environment.
TRL provides a nutritious snack each mid class break. We will also provide a breakfast for early arrivers. Our menu includes fresh or frozen fruits and vegetables. We often hear, “My child won’t eat vegetables,” or “My child doesn’t like sauce on his pasta.” Parents are constantly surprised at the variety of foods that their children will eat at school that they won’t even try at home. Often this is due to “positive peer pressure.” It might not happen the first time, or even the second time, but children will eventually eat foods that they see their friends enjoying.
Two-way communication between our center and parents is paramount for the healthy development of the child. TRL has an open-door policy, allowing for families/guardians to visit our center at any time. Monthly TRL newsletters and family/teacher conferences are regularly scheduled to showcase what your children are learning every day.
Our centers are thoroughly cleaned throughout each day and professionally cleaned during evenings and weekends. All of our infant and toddler classrooms maintain a shoeless policy in order to maintain clean floors for our crawling children. We only use non scented sterilizing cleaning products which are a much safer alternative to traditional cleaning products for many reasons.
Each classroom, playroom, and reception has at least one security camera which allows our front desks to continuously monitor activities throughout the center.
All of our teachers are certified in First Aid and CPR, even though the State of SINDH only requires us to have at least one certified person at each center at all times. In addition, we have numerous staff that are trained in medication administration.
Another way we go beyond licensing requirements is by doing our own criminal conviction and background checks before a staff member starts working with children. We follow it up every year after that as well.
