Our Emergent Curriculum is Reggio Emilia influenced, providing rich opportunities for early learning that best occurs when children and educators collaborate. Environments based on children’s interests deepen real opportunities for children to play for pleasure and within that play children learn and practice every day.

Our goal is to provide a safe, nurturing, interactive and stimulating learning environment which encourages each child to develop their social, emotional, physical, creative, and intellectual skills to their full potential.

Our team of professional and dedicated educators has developed programs that provide a balance of both structured and unstructured learning based on a curriculum that revolves around the interests of each child.
Our programs are especially developed for group and individual, one-on-one learning activities so that our children learn to be able to work and play in cooperative group settings as well as on their own.
