Established for Over 50 Years
For more than 50 years, our program has been universally loved and respected.

We believe in treating each child as an individual and utilizing the child's learning style in order to achieve each child's fullest potential.
Fall Preschool Registration
Toddler Program
Our structured group learning program is designed to ease each child's transition from home to school. This fosters socialization and independence in your child. The Toddler program emphasizes social skills, and language and communication development.
Early Preschool Program
Early Preschool is for children in the process of transitioning from toddler to preschool students. Daily learning experiences are planned to promote independence, enhance social skills and build the confidence needed to reach their potential and prepare them for Preschool and beyond.
Preschool Program
The hands-on approach in our 3 year old program enables each child to develop age appropriate fine motor and gross motor skills, as well as to improve communication and listening skills. It also reinforces social skills and introduces children to pre-reading, writing, math, science and other education skills.
Prekindergarten
Our teachers employ center-based activities tailored to meet the individual learning styles of each child. The program fosters growth, independence and self-esteem through accomplishments. Children learn how to make good decisions and enhance their language based skills which prepare them for successful entry into kindergarten.
Summer Camp
18 months to 5 years old
Our four week summer program enhances the school year experience. During the summer, the teachers introduce a new summer theme each week. The children then explore, discover and create art projects based upon that theme.
