Program & Curriculum
Our students are offered a unique, hands-on preschool setting proven to prepare your child for their elementary years. Our program is structured and academic, with a balance of social play in a non-pressured setting. Art, music and storytelling are offered daily.
Our infant and toddler programs are created individually for each child.
Our infant rooms are painted pink and blue with “Pirates of the Sea & Fairy Tale Princess” theme. We have brand new cribs, changing tables, high chairs, carpet, and toys for the new school year which begins every mid June.
Our toddler rooms have a Busy Bee Hive with a Busy Bees and Beautiful Butterflies theme. We also have the Wise Owls Treehouse, with a Wise Owls and Rockin’ Robins theme. The small toddlers have three person bucket seat tables in their room to be easily fed and do art at. We can concentrate on three toddlers at a time, so they aren’t taking each others food!
We have a brand new infant and toddler playground area with a soft, thick, synthetic grass, and no one else uses this playground. They have strollers with a moon roof, so sun will not beat down on them, and the teachers can still see theme. They can be transported to their new playground easily or go for a daily stroll!
Your infant and toddler will be participating in lots of hands-on activities, and even art work. We will transform their art into beautiful memories for you!
