At Agape Spanish Immersion Academy, we joyfully welcome you to a community where faith, love, and learning come together. Our mission is to nurture each child spiritually, academically, socially, and emotionally through a Christ-centered environment and Spanish language immersion. “Agape” means unconditional love — the perfect love that comes from God. This love is the foundation of all we do. We believe that every child is uniquely created by God with purpose and potential, and it is our calling to help them grow in wisdom, kindness, and faith. Through daily prayer, worship, and biblical values woven into our curriculum, children learn to see God’s presence in all things — while developing bilingual skills, cultural awareness, and a love for learning. Our classrooms are filled with joyful exploration, creativity, and connection, helping children grow both in their faith and in their understanding of the world around them. We are blessed to partner with families who share our vision of raising children who love God, love others, and love learning. Welcome to the Agape family — where faith, love, and learning grow together.

Located in Linwood, four miles west of 35 and one mile east of Linwood Elementary off of County Road 22. Open 5:30 AM - 5 PM. I have been a licensed provider for 18 years. Before that I worked at the U of M as an administrative assistant. Participate in a food program, preschool curriculum, general crafts, music and dance, story time, and we go outside twice a day weather permitting. I provide a safe home atmosphere in which the children and I are together on one level, interacting at all times to encourage learning and growth. Your child will learn how to develop their social skills, will have opportunities for large and small motor skills, educational readiness, and participate in activities that will develop an active curiosity in an atmosphere where your child will feel at home. I meet all the annual required training to include CPR, 1st Aid, Shaken Bay, SIDS, child development, nutrition, and environment issues. I am taking classes toward Parent Aware ratings.

FAQs for finding preschools near you in Forest Lake, MN

There are two main types of preschool programs near you in Forest Lake, MN. 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 Forest Lake, MN for traditional preschool centers, or private home-based preschools.

When you begin looking for preschools near me in Forest Lake, MN, 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 Forest Lake, MN.

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