Our preschool operates from Monday to Friday, from 9:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. We also offer extended care options for parents who require early drop-off or late pick-up services between 8:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. 

We are a Christ-centered developmental preschool. Our developmental approach considers a child’s need to explore and express their ideas in a variety of ways such as imaginative play, discussion, art, building, and socializing. In our environment, play is seen as the child’s work, and it is the means by which our children discover and learn in the world. We seek to provide an environment that is nurturing to each child’s spiritual, social, emotional, and academic needs. We do this by creating environments and experiences that inspire a sense of wonder in our children’s hearts and help them discover their world in new ways. 

Our teachers are Christ-following professionals who hold relevant degrees or units in early childhood education and have extensive experience working with young children. They are dedicated professionals who undergo regular training and professional development to stay updated with the latest research and best practices in early childhood education.  

The safety and security of our children are our top priorities. We maintain secure premises with controlled access, conduct regular safety drills, and have strict protocols for drop-off and pick-up procedures. Our staff members are trained in first aid and CPR, and we have comprehensive safety policies in place. 

Please provide healthy snacks (and lunches for extended days) for your child each day they come to school. We have a policy of no peanut butter in all classrooms.  

In the event of a medical emergency, we have staff members who are trained to provide immediate assistance and administer first aid. We maintain detailed medical records for each child and require parents to provide information regarding their child’s health and any required medications. Our policy strictly adheres to relevant laws and regulations regarding medication administration. 

We believe in fostering a positive and supportive learning environment. Our approach to discipline is based on promoting positive behavior and teaching children appropriate ways to express their emotions. We encourage open communication with parents and work collaboratively to address any behavioral concerns that may arise. 

We highly value parental involvement and believe that a strong partnership between parents and the preschool is essential for a child’s development. We offer regular parent-teacher conferences, newsletters, and various events where parents can engage with teachers and staff. We also have an open-door policy, encouraging parents to communicate with us and share any concerns or suggestions they may have.
