For children ages 3 to 5 years
At Day Nursery, our Preschool Program is thoughtfully designed to support the developmental needs of children ages 3 to 5, while preparing them for a confident and enthusiastic transition to kindergarten. Our classrooms are vibrant, engaging spaces where learning happens through exploration, discovery, and purposeful play.
We proudly implement the Frog Street Pre-K curriculum, a comprehensive, research-based program that promotes growth across all key developmental domains. This curriculum blends academic instruction with hands-on experiences in literacy, math, science, art, music, and social-emotional learning, all tailored to support the whole child.
To further enhance learning outcomes, we integrate powerful educational tools including Hatch Insights™, which uses real-time data to support literacy development, and Math Shelf™, an interactive platform designed to accelerate early math skills through individualized instruction.
Preschoolers are encouraged to make choices in their learning, fostering independence, creativity, and a sense of ownership over their educational journey. Small group activities and collaborative play help children build essential social skills such as communication, empathy, and teamwork.
Our experienced teachers guide children through engaging thematic units that inspire curiosity and a love of learning. With strong support systems, modern tools, and a nurturing environment, Day Nursery’s Preschool Program lays a strong foundation for success in kindergarten—and beyond.
