About our Facilities
Creative Kidz Preschool & Daycare was established in 2011 in Newberg, Oregon. Founded by Christina Cornett (a Newberg native) & Adam Wilson, the previous owner. Recognizing the community's need for a childcare facility, they established Creative Kidz. To fulfill this vital requirement, they started providing an essential service to the community. With a passion for Teaching, wanting to provide information, education and inspiration, Christina has worked as lead Teacher in all classrooms over the years. If you see her, make sure to say Hello!

Our Philosophy
The Creative Kidz team believes in the practice of high standards of safety, security, cleanliness, teaching, and loving care.
Our philosophy is that children learn best through play. Dramatic play plays an important role in hands on learning, self-expression, and problem solving. To facilitate the highest level of early education, we offer a variety of teaching styles at our facility; embracing diversity is pivotal to creating a warm and welcoming learning environment for children. Offering children a space to freely express themselves though structured and unstructured activities and opportunities to grow, with child-led activities in the classroom, allows children to present discoveries with their curious minds. Our hope for children who graduate from Creative Kidz, is to manifest confidence in their new classroom!
