Our Different Classes by Age

Covering Ages 2 through Pre-K

We create a friendly and nurturing atmosphere designed to inspire confidence and a positive self-image in every child. Our age-appropriate learning experiences stimulate cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development, while also fostering spiritual growth.

 

With a low teacher-to-child ratio, we tailor our teaching methods to meet the unique learning needs of each individual. Our comprehensive early childhood education program lays a solid foundation for future academic success and promotes healthy social skills and relationships, preparing children for elementary school and beyond.

Ladybugs
Ages 2-3

Ladybugs experience a warm, nurturing atmosphere in which teachers lovingly interact with the children as they care for their needs.  Our toddlers are tended to in a manner that helps develop trust in their surroundings, teachers and peers.  In the Ladybug class, children are encouraged to develop independence while maintaining a sense of security.  The curriculum centers on the interests of the child, their investigations, curiosities and incorporates a generous variety of sensory and outdoor activities.

 

NO POTTY TRAINING is required for our Ladybug friends, those skills are learned as part of their life skills curriculum.

Caterpillars
Ages 3-4

With their newly-found independence from diapers, our Caterpillars are potty-trained and ready for their next adventure.  Daily activities are planned around units of study and themes /topics that reflect the children's interests and provide meaningful and purposeful learning experiences. A balanced schedule allows for development in both individual and group settings.  Stories, music, language experiences and discussion take place in small and large groups.  Individually, children choose learning center activities in which they can work and play alone, in pairs, or in small groups.

Pre-K for Ages 4+

Our Pre-K students are challenged intellectually and developmentally to ensure they receive every possible advantage heading off to elementary school.

 

Kindergarten preparation is the primary goal for this group.  Activities focus on phonics, writing skills, science, math and language. Children leave our program fully prepared for the challenges of Kindergarten and are often ahead of their peers.​
