Our Program

​“Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.” —Aristotle
Early childhood care and education for children 18 months and up

 

Our program takes an interdisciplinary approach to all themes. We believe that children’s minds are like sponges, absorbing knowledge from the information that’s given to them. Their learning capacity is limitless as long as they are interested and engaged. With that in mind, our goal is to playfully introduce concepts of arts and sciences as far as their interests and ages allow.

Social emotional skills are extremely important  for all ages, and early childhood is a crucial time on the development of healthy practices on these matters. Playing is a perfect opportunity for educators to guide kids through it, since play-time is when children can make their decisions, solve their problems with friends, and learn how to ask for help if needed.

Our program's goal is to support the development of the whole child, lovingly guiding them through academics, reasoning skills and emotional development.
