AMERICA’S MOST ACCREDITED

We’re so proud!

Nationally only 10% of daycares are accredited – nearly 100% of our learning centers are. That’s a big difference,
and that means KinderCare kids are getting the very best. Here’s why.

SCHOOL-READY

What Learning Looks Like

Our talented early-childhood teachers set kids down the path toward becoming lifelong learners in a positive, safe, and nurturing environment.

Bensalem KinderCare Programs

Infant Programs (6 weeks–1 year)

Leaving your baby in someone else’s care is a big step. Everyone at our
centers—most importantly, our naturally gifted infant teachers—will work with
you to make sure the transition goes smoothly. When you step into our infant
classroom, you’ll see how much we want your infant to feel safe, loved, and
ready to explore their world.

Toddler Programs (1–2 Years)

Everything in our toddler classroom is designed for little explorers. That’s
because a lot is going on at this age. When your child is wandering all over the
place, that means they’re learning and discovering new things every day. We’ll
help them explore their interests (and find new ones!) as they play and learn.

Discovery Preschool Programs (2–3 Years)

This age is filled with so much wonder and curiosity. That’s why we offer a ton
of books and toys and bring artwork down to kids eye level. Children in
discovery preschool also begin to learn how we all work together in a
classroom. Simple math and science, pretend play, and group play help them
get used to a more structured school setting.

Preschool Programs (3–4 Years)

This age is all about expression, when kids really start to form their own ideas
about what they want to play and how they want to create. Every day in our
preschool classroom, your child will explore science experiments, create
artwork, and play pretend—all the skills needed for their big next step:
kindergarten!

Prekindergarten Programs (4–5 Years)

When you walk into one of our pre-K classrooms, you’ll see artwork and
writing displayed around the room. Labels are everywhere to help kids connect
letters with words. You’ll also see pictures on the walls that reflect the families
in our community. Your child will also deepen their knowledge in language,
math, science, Spanish, and social skills.

Learning Adventures – Enrichment Program

Cooking Academy™ (3 – 12 Years)

In Cooking Academy, kids learn new recipes from cultures around the world and
develop a healthy relationship with food. They’ll whip up everything from Southwest
rainbow lettuce wraps to pumpkin muffins, building their skills in STEM, communication,
and more along the way. And yes—little chefs get to eat their culinary creations!

Music Explorers™ (2 – 4 Years)

KinderCare families are already giving a standing ovation to our newest Learning
Adventures program: Music Explorers! Kids will learn to sing, move, listen, play
instruments, and even create their own tunes. Our original curriculum blends math,
science, social studies, literacy, and mindfulness (think yoga!) for a uniquely KinderCare
way of learning the foundations of music.

Phonics Adventures® (2 – 4 Years)

Learning how to read is a whole lot of fun at KinderCare! We help kids grow to love
books and words (and get ready for kindergarten) in our Phonics Adventures program.
From discovering the basics of vowels to practicing poetry, kids learn all about letters
and sounds in small-group lessons made just for their age group. (Bonus: Kids who
attend our phonics program are more prepared than their peers for school—and we
have the data to prove it.)

STEM Innovators (3-8 Years)

You’ve probably heard a lot about how important STEM education is for your child, but
what does that really mean? Our STEM Innovators program takes kids’ natural ability to
make sense of the world and applies it to robotics, chemistry, coding, geology, and
more. While your child experiments, they’ll discover how to use technology to do
amazing things!

Our Teachers

We’re the only company in early childhood education to select teachers based on natural talent. Being a great educator isn’t enough though.
KinderCare teachers are also amazing listeners, nurturers, boo-boo fixers, and smile-makers. Put more simply,
we love our teachers and your child will, too.

Meet just a few of our amazing KinderCare teachers!

A KINDERCARE TEACHER WITH

An Artist’s Heart

“My classroom is full of art!” says Mary Annthipie-Bane, an award-winning early childhood educator at KinderCare. Art and creative expression, she says, help children discover who they really are.

We put our best-in-class teachers in a best-in-class workplace. We’re so proud to have been named one of Gallup’s 37 winners of the Great Workplace Award.
When you put great teachers in an engaging center, your children will experience
an amazing place to learn and grow.

Family Stories

Don’t take our word for it. Hear what our families have to say about our amazing center!

• I have been a family of KinderCare for over 15 years. The KinderCare teachers have helped prepare all three of my boys for Head Start, Kindergarten, and achieve in reading. If it wasn’t for KinderCare, I would not be able to work. They transport my children to school and pick them up for me; I know they are getting school safely and I can get to work on time. The staff at the Bensalem KinderCare is the best! We think of them as part of our family. They are always warm and friendly, and it is nice to see how my boys love their teachers. Lastly, the summer camp is always a fun experience for my children. It is comforting to know that my boys are having a great time, whether on a field trip or in house activities. I always tell families that if they need a great childcare center to take their children too, I highly recommend KinderCare.

  Linda M. – KinderCare Parent

• We waited until Matthew was almost a year old before we were ready to have anyone outside our family watch him. When we finally decided to look at day care center, it was important to us to find a place with teachers who would love him like we do and have creative, educational activities. Right away, we loved the energy of the teachers at KinderCare. We knew he had a great relationship with his teachers when we saw one of them in the mall and he immediately put his arms out for her to pick him up! Now he perks right up whenever he hears any of their names and walks right into his room in the morning!

  Jean U. – KinderCare Parent

• We have been a KinderCare family since 2007. My kids love KinderCare! They enjoy going there every day and look forward to all of the activities planned for the day. I am so grateful for the great job the teachers are doing with my kids. I cannot ask for a better daycare. We are currently attending KinderCare and would recommend this center to all families. KinderCare is my #1 daycare and I want to thank all the staff for a great job. Waking my kids up every morning is not painful, they do not cry, they love all the staff and are excited for school. Their excitement is what motivates me and keeps my kids at KinderCare. Thank you again!

  Yajaira B. – KinderCare Parent

• I have been a KinderCare parent for over fourteen years. I started my daughter at the age of two and now my son attends the Bensalem KinderCare. The staff at the Bensalem KinderCare is great, very caring. They are great with my son and he LOVES going there every day to learn and have fun, not only with his friends but also with his teachers. I consider KinderCare a great place to have my child every day.

If you’re ready to roll up your sleeves and get to work, this book is for you!”

Sarah Verdusko Shane,

family therapist

Dr. Burns’ new book is an absolute breakthrough! I am a psychotherapist and regularly use the methods in this book in my private practice. My patients not only get better, they do it faster and more efficiently than before! And also, by using these tools in my own life, I was on my way to personal enlightenment, which I could not have expected. Dr. Burns is a genius and this book is a true gift to all of us.”

Warning

The ideas and techniques presented in this book are not meant to replace consultation with a qualified professional. The names and any details that might reveal the identities of the patients described in the book have been changed. Any resemblance to real people, living or deceased, is purely coincidental.

When I describe a case of depression or anxiety, and also give an example of how a particular technique works, I usually choose a situation with a positive outcome and talk about a cure. Quite often in the examples, patients achieve improvements quickly and without the so-called rollback. This approach helps the reader to quickly learn the use of various techniques and gives him hope – and this, in my opinion, is the main condition for healing.

However, I ask you not to take these examples as a guarantee that the same techniques will be equally effective for you, your friends or loved ones. We are all unique and react differently to the same methods. Therefore, although the techniques I have described are indeed effective, not every reader of this book or psychotherapist’s client will be able to achieve such a rapid and radical change in life.

Some more severe problems will require a longer course of treatment. But just as I never cease to believe in the best when I work with my patients, I urge you not to give up. This approach has proven to be incredibly effective: once you take the first steps, moving towards your goal will be much easier.

This book is dedicated to Obie, my best friend and mentor, who sadly left me in the fall of 2016, and to Rob, my method’s most dedicated follower!

Introduction

Then and Now

When we were living in Philadelphia, my wife and I needed to make repairs to our house. It lasted a couple of weeks. On the last day, Frank, our carpenter, was finishing some work at the front door. As I passed him, I noticed that he looked upset. Then I told Frank that my wife and I are delighted with how he worked on our house, making it even more beautiful, and we are sad to say goodbye.

Frank thanked me and asked if he could ask me a question. He heard that I was a psychiatrist, but did not want to seem intrusive. I replied that I would be happy to help if I could. Frank told me that he felt depressed and asked if I knew about depression and if I could recommend any medicine.

I couldn’t help but help him, because he worked so hard for us, and so I told Frank that depressive experiences are often the result of our thinking. And he wondered if Frank had noticed lately that mood swings were accompanied by bad thoughts, which he thought he was talking to himself.

Frank replied that he thought about aging a lot. He told himself that his body would soon cease to cope with the previous rhythm, and was afraid that then he would not have enough money to provide for himself and his wife in retirement. After leaving school, he was engaged only in carpentry. Now, in his sixties, he suddenly realized that he had never done anything significant in his life. Frank looked like he was about to burst into tears.

I sympathized with him. And then I suggested that he try to apply the so-called technique of double standards, which, as it seemed to me, could help him. By the way, most of us unconsciously use this technique. When we are frustrated or unable to achieve our goal, we tend to berate ourselves and subject ourselves to harsh criticism. But if a close friend had similar problems, we would treat him with much more compassion and support. The technique is to recognize this fact and then ask yourself: Am I ready to talk to myself with the same compassion and support that I would give to a close friend? Not all methods are suitable for everyone, but this one is usually effective for everyone who uses it.

I asked Frank to imagine that he was talking to a close friend who looked very much like him, like a clone of him or a lost twin brother. This imaginary friend was also a carpenter and is about to retire. And he, too, from the very school was engaged only in carpentry. I asked Frank what he would say to such an interlocutor if he admitted that he felt as depressed as Frank himself. Would he say the following to his friend?

Yes, you are getting old. Your body is starting to fail you. And if you retire, you will run out of money and you will not be able to provide for your wife and family. You have never done anything significant in your entire life.

Frank didn’t understand me at first. He confirmed that would have told to a friend because it was true.

I said, “Okay, let’s make sure we understand each other. Let’s pretend I’m your friend. My name is David, but otherwise I’m just like you. I am also a carpenter, and my life is exactly the same as yours. Tell me all this: that I’m getting old, that my body is starting to fail me, that my life was meaningless, and so on.

Frank was thoughtful and was silent for about ten seconds. And then he said, “Doc, I’m not sure you can say that to a friend.”

I asked, “Why?”

Frank explained that it would be cruel to humiliate a friend he likes like that, and that all these statements seemed to him not fair enough, if not completely wrong.

I asked Frank what he would say to David, his friend. Frank replied:

Even though you are getting older, you can still do a great job. Even if you reduce your workload—and you deserve it, in truth—you will still be productive. And, my God, look how wonderfully you did on this house! The owners are delighted, and the result of your work really looks great! By the way, even if you decide to retire, you have good savings, and you and your wife can live on them. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, think about the joy you have brought to the lives of the people you have worked for all these years. You were never complained about, you always did a good job at a fair price and never deceived anyone. This is what is indeed important. You have something to be proud of!

I told Frank that he sounded right, and then asked if it was true or if he said it to support me.

Frank replied that it was pure true.

Then I asked: “If these words are true for me, and I am exactly the same as you, maybe they are true for you too?”

He thought for a moment and then answered: “Probably they are true about me too. You’re right!”

I explained to him that the reason for his depressive mood was not aging, but that he thought negatively about life. The harsh words he spoke to himself would upset anyone. I asked Frank if he was ready to talk to himself the way he would talk to a close friend who looks a lot like him.

At that moment a light bulb went on in his head and Frank exclaimed, “So the problem is just as I think? In my negative thoughts?

I answered yes.

He said, “Wow, I feel much better! Thanks, doc!”

I explained to him that the technique we used was cognitive therapy, because with it we learn to change the way we think, that is, our cognitions. And we did it in five minutes, and he didn’t have to take pills.

I LOVE when this happens. This is one of the main joys in my life. That’s why I wrote Mood Therapy almost forty years ago. I want people to understand the following:

1. You FEEL the way you THINK. In other words, your negative emotions, such as discouragement and anxiety, are the result of your thoughts, not your life circumstances.

2. Negative thoughts that upset you, almost always confused and turned upside down. They do not reflect the true state of things.

3. If you change the way you THOUGHT, you can change your FEELING.

And that’s what really matters. Change can happen very quickly, even if you are feeling severely overwhelmed and anxious.

A few days ago I received a stunning letter from my esteemed colleague, Dr. Robert Schachter:

I want to share an experience that moved me to tears. A woman from Nebraska—her daughter, my New York patient, is twenty years old—reported that she had been deeply impressed by Mood Therapy since her daughter was born.

A woman told a story that happened when her daughter went to kindergarten. Her daughter’s teacher was fired. The woman treated the teacher well and was very worried about her, so she came to her house and left the book “Mood Therapy” on the doorstep.

Their paths parted, and when they met after some time, the teacher said: “I want to thank you. Know that you saved my life! My father committed suicide, and the day you came I was going to follow him. This book saved me. Thank you”. And then my patient’s mother said, “God bless Dr. Burns!”

I have received tens of thousands of letters from people with depression who have read Mood Therapy. At first it was surprising, because I never thought that this book can be used to help yourself. I was just sharing my excitement about the then new non-drug treatment for depression called cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), pioneered by Drs. Albert Ellis and Aaron Beck. I had no idea that this book itself would have an antidepressant effect.

However, since then the effect of Mood Therapy has been confirmed by numerous published studies. For example, Dr. Forrest Scogin of the University of Alabama believes that just giving a book to a patient in need of treatment for moderate to severe depression can increase the likelihood of sustained relief for four weeks without other treatment by 65%. In addition, follow-up studies after two and three years have shown that these patients continue to improve without psychotherapy and antidepressants.

Many researchers have confirmed that the effect of “bibliotherapy” (healing by reading) from “Mood Therapy” is comparable to psychotherapy or antidepressant treatment. Such conclusions are very pleasing, because buying a book is much cheaper than being treated by a psychotherapist or taking medication. And it has no side effects!

But there is another side of the coin. What about those 35% of patients who not cured and who not felt better after reading the book? Why didn’t their condition change? How are they different from people who feel better in four weeks? I thought that if I figured it out, I could make another breakthrough.

Having spent thousands of hours of individual consultations with patients who suffered from severe depression and anxiety, and published many studies on why psychotherapy works or not, I found the answer. That is why I wrote this book.

Unlike Mood Therapy, which was about the cognitive revolution, this book is about the motivational revolution. It is based on a simple idea – sometimes we get “stuck” in a depressed state and anxiety due to a difficult attitude towards healing. Even though we may desperately yearn for change and freedom from suffering, some powerful forces are preventing us from moving on. As strange as it may sound, something within us can fight against the desired changes, resist them.

This is what Freud long ago, in the early days of psychoanalysis, called “resistance.” And while most therapists have since talked a lot about resistance, few have explained why we resist change and how to deal with it. And this is where this book comes in handy. With a new approach to CBT called TEAM , you can overcome resistance and heal quickly.

The TEAM approach has evolved from my clinical experience and research into the real effects of psychotherapy. It has the best elements of CBT I described in the first book, but it works much faster.

This is what the name TEAM means:

T = Testing My colleagues and I check our patients’ symptoms at the beginning and end of each appointment to see if they have improved or not.

E = Empathy At the beginning of each consultation, we listen to the patient and try to build a warm, trusting relationship with him without trying to save him.

A = Assessment of Resistance We try to help each patient turn resistance into awareness and reduce it before starting treatment. When resistance disappears, the patient is usually highly motivated. This allows us to achieve excellent results together.
