Program Highlights


Flexible Schedule: Our drop-in program offers the flexibility you need. Parents can
choose from various time slots that fit their schedules, whether it's a few hours in the
morning or afternoon.


Qualified Staff: Our dedicated team of experienced and trained preschool educators is
committed to providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere. They are skilled in early
childhood development and prioritize your child's safety and well-being.


Engaging Activities: We believe in learning through play. Our daily activities include arts
and crafts, story time, music and movement, sensory play, and guided exploration.
These activities promote cognitive, physical, social, and emotional development.


• Social Interaction: Your child will have the opportunity to interact with peers, fostering
essential social skills such as sharing, communication, and cooperation. Our program
helps build a strong foundation for future friendships and collaborative learning.


• Themed Learning/Play & Project Based: Each week, we introduce a new theme that
guides our activities. From "Under the Sea" to "Outer Space Adventures," our thematic
approach keeps learning exciting and encourages curiosity. Immersive project and Play
experiences reinforce learning. Example; For learning Math concepts we set up a Play
Grocery Store, for some imagination play. For Plant Life cycles we will start a garden
through harvest. We practice writing our name through sending Post Cards through our
Post Office.


• Healthy Food: Please provide healthy snacks and Meals in a cold case for your lil one.
We have a 8am breakfast break, 10am snack, 11:45 lunch, 2pm snack. Please inform us
of any dietary restrictions or allergies your child may have. We have additional
Supplemental food on-site in the event there is a need.


• Parent Communication: We believe in open communication. Our staff will share daily
updates on your child's activities, achievements, and any important moments via
brightwheel. We're always here to address any concerns or questions you may have &
are always immediately accessible using our Brightwheel App and phone conversations
can be scheduled upon request.


• Safe Environment: Our facility is designed with safety in mind. We maintain a clean and
child-friendly space, complete with age-appropriate toys and equipment. Safety
protocols are strictly adhered to at all times.
