Innovative Learning with Learning Beyond Paper

At Kids Campus Valley Stream, we are excited to introduce our new early learning curriculum from Learning Beyond Paper, Inc. This research-based, classroom-tested program supports development from infancy through Pre-K 4 and is rooted in a social-constructivist approach, creating meaningful learning opportunities through peer interaction, purposeful play, and intentional teacher guidance. Learning Beyond includes a strong STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) focus throughout for all age groups, helping children build curiosity, problem-solving skills, creativity, and confidence from the very beginning.

Staying Connected With Procare

We know how important communication and transparency are to families, which is why our Learning Beyond curriculum integrates seamlessly with Procare, our digital parent communication platform. Procare tracks classroom activities and developmental milestones while aligning learning experiences with state standards. Through the Procare mobile app, families receive real-time updates, daily reports, photos, videos, newsletters, calendars, and important announcements. It also offers secure messaging between parents, teachers, and administrators to support meaningful communication about your child’s growth, daily experiences, billing, and more.

Outdoor Play & Nutrition

Children play in a secure outdoor playground daily, weather permitting. We also provide daily breakfast, lunch, snacks, prepared to meet the highest nutritional standards through the New York State Child Care Food Program. For infants, we provide formula if needed and are a CACFP certified breastfeeding friendly childcare center.

Safety & Security

The safety of your child is always our top priority. All Kids Campus locations have locked front entry doors with keypad access that is only provided to currently enrolled families. Each parent or guardian receives an individual security code through our automated electronic entry system, and all adults must sign in upon entry. During enrollment, families provide an approved pick-up and drop-off list, and any non-primary guardian must present valid photo identification and receive parent authorization before a child is released to them. These layers of protection ensure that our center remains secure at all times.
