A Child-centered, Holistic Approach
We provide a well balanced approach to early childhood development. We pride ourselves on a low student to teacher ratio. Most classes have a maximum of 12 students. We develop age-appropriate activities that introduce and strengthen social and academic skills. In addition to the ‘basics’, we offer students a range of gross/fine motor and creative opportunities including weekly music classes and field trips.
