About

All program instructors are hand selected by owner and renowned climber, Robyn Erbesfield-Raboutou. Our instructors are truly dedicated to their jobs and to your children. They are strongly committed to the facility's philosophy and betterment of our programs.

Our teaching staff consists of a team of teachers who work together with mixed-age classes of children utilizing one another's strengths.

Our Objectives

  • To offer the highest quality developmentally appropriate program available for young children.
  • To provide a caring, and nurturing environment in which each child's unique interests and learning styles are best able to develop through the use of a variety of materials, created to develop individual, physical and social growth within a community of peers.
  • To help our children understand the importance of exercise, risk, sportsmanship, proper technique and most importantly to have fun while engaged in an athletic activity.

ABC for Kids helps your child learn that they are unique and that they do count as individuals. We provide the child with the environment that allows him/her the freedom to choose, the ability to explore, question, and manipulate.

Our Philosophy

We believe that education is a process of discovery and that children will discover ideas on their own if given the right tools. Confidence and self-esteem grow from this process of observation and discovery.

The ABC for Kids method provides a carefully prepared environment of learning materials and experiences. Our program is comprised of mixed-age classes because we believe that this format allows them to interact with other children on a variety of physical, intellectual and social levels and flourish in a learning environment.

Instructors facilitate the learning process by directing the children toward meaningful activity through which they discover and develop their interests and abilities and experience the outcome of their choices.
