Hacienda las Flores

Our Teachers

Elizabeth Martinez Acosta, Director and provider. Elizabeth graduated from the University of Chihuahua, Mx in 1999 with a degree in Economics. In 2016, she realized her dream of having her own in-home childcare program after the birth of her daughter. Her favorite thing about what she does is developing relationships with the children that she teaches and their families. She believes that small class size and the development of a strong community allow her and her team to really know each child as an individual and to provide a solid and supportive foundation in the early years.

Philosophy

Our number one objective is to ensure that all children, whether they visit for one day or stay for years, receive love, attention, and care to become self-sufficient, loving, and grateful individuals. Children are the most precious gift to the world, like a blank book waiting to be filled with the values and principles that will guide them through life and shape their future relationships. It is crucial to provide them with the necessary tools for holistic development in a safe and peaceful environment. As caregivers, we recognize the profound impact that early connections and experiences have on their lives as adults, and strive to make these moments the best they can be. We believe in the power of games and hands-on activities that engage children’s senses, and we value parental participation in these experiences as essential.

Location

Located in the South Valley, about 5 miles south of Rio Bravo, on Coors. Close to Las Estancias commercial plaza and Los Padillas Elementary School.

About our program

At our school, we teach the concepts of math, science, engineering, art, social sciences and early literacy through our play-based, child-led curriculum. We use the interests and ideas of the children as a jumping off place. The materials are open-ended and invite discovery. Children make their own investigations and draw their own conclusions whenever possible.
