Excellent preschool program offered Monday through Friday from 9:30 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. I accept ages 3+ for my preschool program. Care.com did not offer the option to select 3 yrs old without including infants. Your child will learn how to read, write, spell, math, science, basic Spanish, sign language, be a part of a group, raise their hand, line up, good manners, confidence, sportsmanship, independence, etc. My program is designed to have your child kindergarten ready. My program more than exceeds state standards and the kindergarten teachers love me for how ready my preschool kids are when they enter school. This is not a hobby job for me, this is my business and my number one priority is assisting your child with the best possible education and experience prior to entering kindergarten. I put a lot of effort and time in working with the children, one on one, as much as we do as a group. No one gets left behind in my care on any level. I run a very structured day during their time with me. All children have their own cubbies to keep their personal items, crafts, homework, etc. I have been running my business successfully since 1999. I have always offered preschool as an added bonus for those enrolled in my program who come part-time and full-time. I also run a before and after school program and offer homework assistance. I am offering my preschool program during the day to assist those who would like to enroll their child in a preschool only program. Your children will learn much more than just their ABC's and 123's. Please visit my website for more detailed information. You can also contact me via my website in the contact section. Preschool begins September 9th.
