Little Sprouts Child Enrichment Academy is a preschool and daycare center that provides organic and natural meals for your child. We believe that in order for your "Little Sprout" to grow to their full potential both developmentally and physically, they need a variety of high quality, nutritious food. Many preschools and daycare centers in San Diego try to cut their costs by buying the "cheap stuff," however, we do not believe that that is in the best interest of your child. We believe that healthy eating habits should start early to prepare your child for a lifetime of success. We use natural and green cleaning products to insure that no one is exposed to harmful chemicals. Little Sprouts Academy uses a blend of curricula such as Reggio and programs geared toward kindergarten readiness as well as providing enriching experiences for your child. Your child will enjoy and learn from various activities and experiences such as music and movement, art experiences, cooking classes, and even yoga practice! We believe toddlers and young children learn best from their experiences. That is why we make sure they are exposed to many different mediums so they can discover their world, create new ideas and express themselves. These activities focus on development of your child's social, sensory, and motor skills.

Myriah M. says "What a wonderful school! The rooms are so bright, clean and welcoming. The staff truly care about our family and always are so genuine and friendly. I...

Au Clair De Lune

1976 COOLIDGE ST SAN DIEGO, CA

Au Clair De Lune is a Non-Profit French immersion Preschool & Kindergarten for children from 2 to kindergarten built in 2020 by three native accredited French teachers. _The founders know their way around a school, any school, as they have taught in preschool, elementary and high school in France and in the United-States. Together they know what the educational school system asks of the children throughout the year and where the flaws are. More often than not, classes are packed and the curriculum is too demanding or not fitting for children to explore their unique selves. As a result, children develop a negative relationship with school and distance themselves from being active learners and may fall behind within the academic standard. This is not the children's fault by any means. School should be interesting, challenging, engaging and more importantly, fun! Au Clair de Lune is solely governed by educators who are passionate about their work. We never stop learning, researching, pushing the boundaries and evolving in our work. Times change, children's needs also change and evolve. We are dedicated to offer the best environment to promote learning and socialization in a culturally diverse environment.

My name is Toni and I have been a preschool teacher for the past 9 years and loved every second of it! I have taught children from infant all the way up to pre-K! After having my own little man I thought about all the benefits to being more one on one with children instead of the ratios that preschools have! That is why I would love to watch your little one at my home! The maximum amount of children would be no more then 3 to guarantee that they are learning, growing and getting the attention they deserve! I am also available most Saturday's if needed. I love doing art projects, science experiments, singing songs and having dance parties! I have daily sheets that record what your child ate during the day and how much, along with a diaper schedule and nap schedule! I also potty train! If you would like to learn more about me please feel free to message me back!
