If you're looking to set your child up for a lifetime of learning, Ivybrook Academy Apex/Holly Springs Campus will lay the foundation and provide them with the tools and resources they need to become all that they can be. We are a private, half-day preschool in Apex that allows children's individual uniqueness to shine and helps them become compassionate, confident citizens. We take a progressive, multi-sensory approach to early childhood education and our discovery-based curriculum allows children to embrace their natural curiosity about the world around them. Our programs, designed for children ages 18 months to six years, include the following: Toddler Preschool Preschool for 2-Year-Olds Preschool for 3-Year-Olds Preschool for 4 & 5-Year-Olds Private Kindergarten Our school offers campus tours, so we invite you to schedule one today so that you can get to know a little more about us! At Ivybrook Academy Holly Springs, we don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to learning. Every child is unique and has their own strengths. Each student also learns in their own way, so the curriculum should be designed in a manner that accommodates this. That's why our Apex preschool pulls from three progressive learning philosophies: Reggio Emilia - This is a student-led approach that encourages children to learn at their own pace. Montessori - This theory encourages children to take the lead in their education and embrace their curiosity. The Theory of Multiple Intelligence - Every child's mind works differently, so this theory emphasizes the importance of adapting the learning experience to a child's needs. By embracing all three of these learning philosophies, we can create the most productive and empowering learning environment for each of our students. The best way to learn more about who we are and what we offer is to come see our preschool for yourself. We offer campus tours to prospective parents where they will have an opportunity to meet some of our staff and ask any questions they may have.

Preschool
Welcome to St. Mary Magdalene Preschool. We offer full and half-day preschool for 3's and 4's during a traditional school year. Our goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment where young children can learn and explore. We believe that a basic understanding of the beauty of God's creation and of his unending love and forgiveness for all people helps to set young children on a positive path for friendships, behavior, and knowledge of their own self-worth. Weekly activities in the preschool classrooms include arts and crafts, music, movement, alphabet and number activities, science and sensory activities, dramatic play, block play, writing activities, and manipulative toys such as puzzles and peg boards. In both the 3 year old and 4 year old programs, there is significant emphasis placed on social skills and language skills. The Preschool program at STMM follows the curriculum guidelines developed by the Diocese of Raleigh. Classroom teachers use the teaching methods and activities that they have found to be most effective with their age group as they address each of the curriculum standards set forth by the diocese. The Diocesan Curriculum for Early Childhood Programs includes activities and skills for each developmental area in which children learn and grow. These areas include spiritual, social, emotional, cognitive, language and physical motor skills. We are accredited by AdvancEd, part of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

There is not another place like this one so please read and ask all the questions you have! I am a Certified Child Developmental Specialist and Newborn Care Specialist. I have been in the baby business for 25 years. Most recently I have created a very unique in home environment for your newborn that will support your transition back to work and provide them with the specific, detailed and special care that will exactly meet their needs for those early weeks and months. Some children stay in my care for a few weeks- until they are big enough, strong enough or healthy enough for a larger daycare setting (or if they are awaiting a spot). Other children stay longer and continue in my care up until about two years old. Each situation is unique. Each family is unique. I often keep a wait-list so if you are expecting and reading this please reach out. It's never to early. However, life is full of change and from time to time I have a spot come open and I interview with families to fill it right away. So, it might happen that I have room now. I don't accept just anyone- as I would hope you wouldn't leave your baby with just anyone. The magic is in the match! My Bachelor's Degree is in Child Development, I have many additional certifications and I have 25 years work experience directly with children and families. From the NICU, Pediatrics, Social Services, Universities, Elementary School, Homes and Child Care Centers, CPS, Parents As Teachers, and many other settings. I stay current on SIDS, early intervention,First Aid, CPR, AAP and best practice for newborn care. I am specially trained in building attachment, baby massage, baby signs, building language, sleep, eating, playing, tummy time, routines (schedules) are key to helping babies learn and trust their environment and that is huge for me. I always worked part-time and stayed home part-time with my children. I feel strongly that you learn from both experiences. I am in my mid 40's and am married with six kids. Most of them are in college, but I understand the balance of work-home life very much. I am proud to have raised strong, successful people but I know I didn't do it alone. I had wonderful help and support and it's my pleasure to provide that to parents today. It's hard to leave your baby, but it is reassuring to know that they are safe, happy, laughing and learning. I am big on communication and flexible on schedules. Please reach out and let's start a conversation.

I am a stay-at-home mom. We recently moved to the area from Maryland, though we are originally from Michigan. I have a six year old son who is in first grade and a daughter who turned one in May. I previously watched children for working moms as an alternative to daycare. I love children, have a safe, clean and child proof house. Watching another child will also be great socialization for my daughter and the child. I live down the street from a community park and across the street from an elementary school. I have a mini-van, extra car seats and everything I would need to watch your little one. My schedule is also very flexible. I would love to help working parents by providing loving one-on-one time with your child as a healthy alternative to a daycare center.

In-Home daycare
We run our program on the belief that there are certain experiences that are essential for the healthy development of young children: love and warmth; an environment that nourishes the senses; creative and artistic experiences; meaningful adult activity to imitate; free, imaginative, self-directed play; protection of the forces of growth in childhood; gratitude reverence, and wonder; joy, humor and happiness and adult caregivers pursuing a path of inner development. Any instruction is more implicit than explicit for the children; we model for them rather than offer explanations, we offer them the opportunity to do something instead of asking them if they want to. We practice slow childhood. We try to model an atmosphere of gratitude, reverence and wonder for the children, believing that this, rather than just our outer expectations for their good or polite behavior, will grow naturally in them. We hope that the capacity for love, which we believe is deeply embedded in each and every child, will grow in this natural way as a gesture from them toward the whole world. We take our own self-development and our responsibilities towards your children and you very seriously also joyfully and with deep gratitude.

FAQs for finding preschools near you in Apex, NC

There are two main types of preschool programs near you in Apex, NC. The first is a full-time program that usually works best for parents working full-time shifts, and the second is a part-time preschool where your child would attend only two to three days per week and typically choose between a morning and afternoon shift. A part-time preschool can be a great option if you want to ease the transition of this new learning experience for your child! You can also check your options in Apex, NC for traditional preschool centers, or private home-based preschools.

When you begin looking for preschools near me in Apex, NC, consider your priorities and ask administrators about their philosophies and approach to common child care issues or occurances. You may also want to ask about the ratio of learning time to supervised play time so you can get a good sense of whether you believe your child's needs will be met. From there, ask about what a typical day consists of, what the safety protocols are and how discipline will be handled. Also, make sure to check directly with the preschool for information about their local licensing and credentials in Apex, NC.

When looking for a preschool near you in Apex, NC on Care.com, you'll be able to review preschools by distance from you ZIP code.
