Early Preschool Daycare (2-3 years)
Hands-On Learning
By the time your child approaches three years of age, he or she is ready to learn new skills. By combining Kindergarten-readiness activities with the best early-childhood standards we assist your child to develop her or her own critical-thinking skills and stimulate your child’s curiosity.
Opportunities for Your Early Preschooler to Explore and Excel
Your early preschooler will engage in a range of activities geared to prepare them for preschool, kindergarten and life beyond. Here are some of those focus areas:
- Construction & Design
- Dramatic Play
- Writing
- Creativity & Art
- Reading & Listening
- Math & Manipulation with numbers
- Science & Sensorial

Learning through Intentional Play
Preschool children start to assert their independence when learning. Our teachers strategically develop learning activities that promote pro-social interactions where all children can be themselves and learn to play with others. The classroom environments are print-friendly filled with labels, children’s names and theme-related materials to promote Early Literacy Skills.
