Preschool
Kid Works Children’s Center is a play-based and developmental preschool serving children who are 3 - 5 years old and who are potty trained. *** We have 2 programs: Full-Day and Half-Day *** Full-Day Hours: 8 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday 8 AM - 12:30 PM, Last Friday of the month *** Half-Day Hours: 8 AM - 12:30 PM, Monday to Friday *** Weekly yoga & mindfulness enrichment is included in the monthly tuition. For an additional fee, we also offer an afternoon Spanish Immersion enrichment for children who are 4 - 6 years old. *** Early childhood is such a brief time in one’s life, and research and experience tell us that young children learn best through exploratory hands-on experiences, rather than through worksheets and the rote memorization of facts. Our teaching practices support the needs of Generation Alpha children and the fast changing and unpredictable world that they are growing up in. We follow tenets of different pedagogies to create our own brand of child-centered care and education. We value community-based and constructivist pedagogies that nurture the whole child (Reggio, Montessori, Waldorf) and we also have an amazing outdoor classroom and take full advantage of being outdoors to play and connect with nature (nature-based education). Teachers at Kid Works see themselves as partners for the children and parents, and in partnership we can better support the growth and development of your little one. Kid Works is a dream for young children everywhere!

We believe children should have FUN! After all, even the experts agree that preschool age children learn most through play. These carefree years are so short, and soon the children will be exposed to a much more structured form of learning. During the month, many activities take place which help promote basic skills (letter & number recognition, color & shape recognition, large motor skills, small motor skills, etc.). Our mission is to teach the children higher order of thinking skills to become independent individuals. We work with families to create a solid foundation, so children can grow and develop healthy lifestyles. We believe that if you teach your children to choose the right path, and when they are older, they will remain upon it. Proverbs 22:6 I accept newborn to 5 years old I incorporate a preschool curriculum into our daily activities for fun and to prepare the older children for school. Hours of Operation Monday - Sunday 24 hr Meals and Snacks are provided All SUBSIDIZED PROGRAMS ARE ACCEPTED
