The purpose of the Preschool 2-3 Years Program is to provide quality child care and recreational experiences for children ages 2 to 3 years old.  We have 2 preschool classrooms: Bunnies and Monkeez.

Our goal is to promote each child’s physical, emotional, social, language, and cognitive development in a positive, safe, stimulating, and nurturing environment.

Emphasis is placed on active, hands-on learning experiences. Children will have daily opportunities to interact in their environment in a well-rounded balance of educational and play activities designed to promote their development in each of the 6 major developmental areas: 

  • Large Motor Development
  • Small Motor Development
  • Social / Emotional Development
  • Language Development
  • Cognitive Development
  • Self Help Skills

We provide preschool students breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon snack each day. Your child will also be assigned a "cubbie" to keep their personal belongings in. Preschool children may bring a special blanket from home for rest time. 

So as to protect the health of all children, staff, and your families at the Center, and to prevent the spread of COVID-19, we are not able to admit children who are ill. If your child has a communicable disease, a persistent cough, runny nose, sore throat, fever, diarrhea, or any other condition that would prevent them from participating in normal daily activities, please keep them at home.
