Here at Homestead Academy we support our community and welcome them into our center. We will purchase local meats, dairy, and produce from USDA certified farms and stands whenever possible. We welcome local artists, musicians, and craftsmen in to share with the children. We utilize programs such as the Oconee County Bookmobile to benefit our children. And we always welcome volunteers to read and do crafts with our children. Oconee County is a great place to raise a family and we are proud to be a part of it!
Our infant room provides a nurturing and stimulating environment for babies, focusing on developmental milestones, care routines, and creating a safe, secure space for infants to thrive. You will see that each child has their own crib, there is a dedicated space for non-mobile infants, and plenty of space for the little ones who are ready to crawl, climb, and learn to walk.
Our young toddler room focuses on fostering early development and socialization through play, structured activities, and routines tailored to this age group, typically including group time, story time, meals, naps, and outdoor play.
Our older toddler room is set up for learning and fun! This room contains a diaper changing area and a bathroom to promote potty training.
We have several exciting areas in this room including a reading area inside a tent! This room also contains a bathroom for continuing to master potty training.
Our preschool age room is stocked with materials and toys aimed at getting kids ready for kindergarten!
We are excited to be working with SDOC to provide transportation via school bus to our center for children attending Fair-Oak Elementary. Any child enrolled at FO is eligible to ride to Homestead Academy each afternoon and enjoy a nutritious snack and afterschool activities through out the school year.
