Our Programs

Balanced Curriculum, combining play-based learning with structured learning.

Coming soon

We are proud to announce that beginning 1 August 2025 we will be offering a new pre-school program. With more structured curriculum, but plenty of breaks and play. Children will get an introduction to school in a comfortable environment. This will be an all-day program, meals and snacks will be provided, as well as an opportunity for rest/naps if still needed.

Art

I believe there are no rules to art. Children will be given age appropriate materials to create whatever their heart desires.

Music

Music is a great learning tool. We incorporate music through various methods.

Movement

Little ones are always on the move. We will provide ample opportunities to get their energy out through movement.

Language

I believe language can be taught through everyday activities. Talking to children, familiarizing them with the ABCs, reading to them on demand and as a group, and simply interacting with their peers.

Mathematics

We all must start with the basics. I believe this can be incorporated into play to make math a fun and enjoyable experience.

Outside Play

We have a large backyard that will be well used. During the summer months children will be outside twice a day. During the winter they will go out in the afternoon. I believe children can learn a lot through nature and the outdoor world. They will be allowed to get a little dirty to experience all the outdoors can offer.

Infants (6 weeks to 12 months): will be fed on demand, and allowed to sleep as often as they need to.

Infants (12 months to 18 months): will eat on the same schedule as the older children, but will be allowed additional naps if needed.

toddlers: will focus primarily on play based learning, with some small structured learning applied. we will also focus on social skills such as gentle hands, sharing, waiting out turn, etc.

Pre-school: will have more structured learning. With emphasis on getting them ready for school. These activities will be conducted as the other children are napping, or when our second teacher is present to assist with the activity.
