Child care
Preschool
Our program is designed to create confident, empowered, kindergarten ready children. There are several ways that we instill confidence in our preschool students. First of all, we make kindergarten readiness our top priority. If we can give our preschool students the tools to be successful, then we're setting them up to be a star in their class. With the right tools, our preschool students will be ahead of the game on their first day of kindergarten. As we all know, entering a new environment can be daunting. And, we all know that when we enter a new environment, even as adults, we always feel way better about ourselves when we know what to expect. Empowerment is the one character trait that a preschooler CANNOT go without. In fact, studies have shown that an empowered student will: 1. Not shy away from challenges. 2. Stand up to bullies. 3. Stand up for others. 4. Approach their teacher when they have questions. 5. Present in front of their class or read aloud with more ease. 6. Learn at a faster rate because they believe in themselves.
