CommuniKids Language Immersion Preschool

3111 Lauderdale Drive Richmond, VA

6 mi

CommuniKids Language Immersion Preschool began as a small, parent-run cooperative preschool in 2003 and has developed into the Region's premier children s language center and preschool. At CommuniKids, we prepare young children to become the global citizens of tomorrow while immersing them in a second language. We have our own proprietary approach to education called ECSL (pronounced "excel"). ECSL is an acronym for Early Childhood Second Language, a groundbreaking early childhood educational approach that prepares children for their K-12 education while promoting fluency in a second language through engaging, developmentally-appropriate activities. ECSL provides children with extended periods of instruction in a second language while giving them opportunities to develop their cognitive, linguistic, motor, and social-emotional skills. In other words, ECSL students master preschool skills while developing second language fluency. Our students gain an extremely high level of proficiency upon completion of our preschool program and are very well-prepared to succeed in Kindergarten and beyond. In our beautiful new center in Short Pump, we offer full-immersion, play-based preschool in Spanish or Mandarin Chinese for children aged 18 months to 5 years old. Choose from full-day and half-day preschool options. We are open from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. In addition to our preschool, we offer weekly language classes for children ages 18 months to ten in Spanish, French, and Mandarin Chinese. We also offer nine weeks of summer camp in all three languages. If you are looking for a high-quality early childhood program that provides added value, give your child the gift of multilingualism at CommuniKids.

Looking for the right family child care provider can be difficult! I am a stay-at-home mom who can provide a comfortable, safe, nurturing, and engaging environment for your little one! I am a licensed teacher (and former kindergarten teacher) and would like to provide your child, as well as my own, with stimulating activities that will help them grow and develop. I have made it a priority to keep a low adult to child ratio to ensure that each child is getting plenty of individualized attention. I am providing part-time care and have a set schedule of M, T, Th, 8:30-5:30. For infant and child care, our typical daily schedule includes breakfast, circle time, playtime, nap or art/learning activity, snack, outdoor activity (walk in the stroller, playing in the yard, trip to the park), lunch, nap, and playtime. I currently have availability to care for a child (age 2-4) beginning in mid-September. Please message me with questions or to set up a time to meet!

Experienced former nanny and Pre-K teacher available for a family seeking full-time care of children aged six weeks to Pre-K. I provide a structured day with story time, song time, and art, as well as indoor and outdoor play. Balancing hugs and fun with good manners and discipline, my parents appreciate the collaborative nature of our professional relationship. New parents, feel free to rely on my experience as you navigate that first year. Our home is a four-square farmhouse, built somewhere around 1910, which was completely renovated in 2002. Offering a safe and secure environment in a park like setting on Mill Road in Glen Allen, we have a fenced in play area in the front with toddler toys and a sand box for little ones, and a separate fenced area out back with loveable Labradors. They are loveable, but they know their space is out back while the little ones are here. This is my profession and I'm committed to maintaining an excellent reputation for providing a great service. For those of you who submit itemized tax returns I do pay taxes and will provide the necessary information for you at tax time. My hours are Monday to Friday from 7.30 a.m. to 5.30 p.m. Feel free to call 804-836-8075 for an interview. If you hear a New Zealand accent, you've got me! Happy and satisfied references are readily available.

Your child can spend almost 50 hours a week in the child care facility that you choose, so you want to maximize their overall potential by finding the right balance between learning, nurturing and fun. At RECA Schools, your child's success is our primary focus. We strive to provide an atmosphere in which your child can experience success on a daily basis, build a positive self-image, and acquire a lifelong love of learning. We achieve this goal through our safe and child friendly facility, an outstanding curriculum, an atmosphere that encourages exploration and development, and a caring team of teachers. TODDLER PROGRAM At this precious age, toddlers' little minds are a sponge for learning opportunities. Toddlers are busy little people who love to climb, explore, build, and create. They are developing many new skills in their quest for independence by walking, talking, and discovering who they are and what they can do. It is a time of fascinating discoveries for our toddlers, a time to adjust to their environment as well as learn about themselves and others. Toddlers are learning to master their bodies by walking, running, stooping, climbing, throwing and jumping. Our facilities allow your toddler to develop all these skills in a safe and well-equipped environment; all under the encouraging supervision of our well trained, nurturing, and degreed teachers. Our Curriculum encourages young toddlers to explore the world around them, and will help them build vocabulary, small and large motor skills, creative expression, socialization, and much more! Preschool Age span is 4 years to 5 years old. The Fantastic Fours offers a more structured program than the threes. More emphasis is placed on letters, sounds, numbers, etc. Using Abeka, a Bible-based curriculum, our threes and fours classes prepare for kindergarten. Unit studies, crafts, music, Bible time and field trips provided for a well-balanced program. In other areas, each child progresses at his/her own developmental level. Patience and love will help our fours to be proud of their accomplishments. A full day and a half day program are offered.

Welcome to the West End Pod! Our names are Ariella Hargrave and Brittany Brown. We are two professional educators who hold degrees in Early Childhood Education and Elementary Education. After working together at the JCC preschool program for several years and homeschooling this past year we have decided to join forces! What we offer: - Full day program (8:30am-5:30pm) - Part time program (either half day or full day a couple times a week) - We provide a 4 to 1 student to teacher ratio. - All nutritious snacks included. - Both indoor and outdoor space for safe play and learning with lots of opportunity for gross motor skills and social emotional development. We are also in the process of putting together our edible garden! - We are strong believers in a Reggio Emilia approach with a focus on kindergarten readiness. In a nutshell this means that we provide opportunities for hands on learning through play while fostering their individual interests and needs. - We promote a family community guided by values focusing on kindness, and respect for people and the world around them. We believe in an open on going communication with parents always with the best interest of the child in mind. We currently have a couple of spots available within our pod. Please inquire for pricing as we understand that COVID brought some financial challenges to so many members of our community so we are happy to discuss payment options. Please reach out to us with any questions or concerns. We're happy to provide references as well. We look forward to hearing from you! Ariella & Brittany
