Preschool
Sand Hills Preschool is a traditional preschool located in South Brunswick Township. We believe that the best way for preschoolers to learn is through play. We are a PRESCHOOL, not a daycare, so we offer different length classes for different age groups. Please read our class offerings and ages carefully. We offer half day programs for 3 year-olds. (9:00am-11:30am) Families can choose two, three of five mornings a week. Your child needs to be three by Dec. 31, 2022 to be in this class. We offer half or full day options for 4 year-olds who turned 4 by Dec. 31, 2022. Our morning class runs from 8:30am-11:30am. Our afternoon class runs from 12:30pm-3:30pm. We do have a lunch program from 11:30am-12:30pm. Four year olds can choose to stay from 8:30-3:30. We have a Toddler Time class once a week for 2 year-olds to attend with a parent or grandparent etc. An adult needs to stay with the child for the duration of the class. We pride ourselves in teaching to the child's individual social, emotional and physical needs. Our quality, developmentally age-appropriate program incorporates all aspects of learning through play and exploration. We are a Grow New Jersey Kids rated school, and we use the Creative Curriculum in our classrooms. Our school is a Christian environment which welcomes children and families of all faith walks to come together as a beautiful and diverse school community. Our amazing student: teacher ratios, caring, experienced staff, and wonderful students and families is what makes us so special. We know you and your child will feel right at home here.

FAQs for finding preschools near you in Helmetta, NJ

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

When you begin looking for preschools near me in Helmetta, NJ, 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 Helmetta, NJ.

When looking for a preschool near you in Helmetta, NJ on Care.com, you'll be able to review preschools by distance from you ZIP code. From there, you can compare between preschool programs by traditional facility-based preschools and private, in-home preschools. Be sure to check any reviews from other families in Helmetta, NJ who have previously sent their kids to any of the preschools you are interested in.
