Cadence Academy Preschool Folsom

76 CLARKSVILLE RD FOLSOM, CA

1 mi

We pride our school in having a family oriented atmosphere, wonderful staff, and a homelike environment. In each and every one of our classrooms, teachers bring concepts like letters, numbers, and language to life through creative activities, ensuring our kids are excited and engaged while learning. We even have a unique outdoor classroom for special activities. Toddlers and preschoolers enjoy the sunny California weather on their own large, separate playgrounds. Kindergarteners excitedly chatter and recite new words they’ve learned—sometimes even in Spanish! Since safety is a priority, our front door requires a security code to gain access, and our front desk has someone there at all times to ensure the most secure possible environment. Each classroom is also equipped with a security camera. *We are now offering Flexipass. With Flexi-Pass, families can purchase 5 full days of prepaid care to use one at a time or all at once. There are no registration fees, no ongoing tuition, and no long-term commitment — just trusted care at a lower per-day cost.*

CMW IS in Rancho Cordova off zinfandel and international.I have been caring for children for 14 years now and I really believe that being a child care provider takes more than just taking care of children. In this field, you have to be professional, trustworthy, passionate, understanding, have lots of patience, be able to offer a safe environment and most of all, you must be able to work with children. Therefore I put myself in the parent position when it comes to leaving their children with a stranger, so finding the right care provider is important! I really encourage parents to allow themselves to take the time to find that person that would be compatible to their children's needs. In addition to this, I have been continuously taking child development classes to help me and to help the parents understand the different temperaments and necessities of children. My program offers healthy home cooked meals, nutrition is also important, so as a part of a healthy meal plan, we offer ONLY fresh fruits and veggies every day, fun activities for all ages and capabilities, Pre-k program, I am Bilingual in Spanish and English and I will teach your child how to speak Spanish if requested. I will potty trained your child if requested. I offer an environment for your children to learn and thrive in where kindness, friendship, and respect are taught by example. We also offer educational curriculum based on your child's own stage of development. Additionally, we encourage exercise through a variety of fun and exciting indoor and outdoor activities!!! (ages 3 months through 5 yrs old.)
