Early Care & Education Programs

Full Day Programs

The function of the Full Day program is to provide instruction and supervision of children during the hours their parents are at work, seeking employment, or in training.

Children come to the Full Day Early Care and Learning Programs from varied backgrounds, at different levels of development and maturity, each with his/her own unique abilities. We create environments and experiences which will foster the cognitive, physical, emotional, and social development of each child in a fun, safe and nurturing manner.

Experiences in the Full Day Early Care and Learning Programs should compliment what the child is learning at home, as he or she progresses from home through the toddler and preschool years, and on to the elementary school. These programs serve as an extension of the educational system by providing planned learning opportunities and enriching experiences at the pre-kindergarten level.

We are proud to offer several sites that are accredited by the National Association for Education of Young Children (NAEYC).

Part Day Programs

The California State Funded Preschool is a part day program established to provide an enriched environment at an early age to benefit children's cognitive, physical, emotional and social development. Increasingly, research shows that quality preschool programs reduce the need for remedial classes and increases school success.

During their pre-kindergarten years, children develop characteristics which will affect their lifelong ability to learn. The dual focus of the preschool program is on children and parents. The family has the most influence on a child's learning potential. Parental participation in classroom activities provides for observation of their child's behavior in a learning setting and allows for reinforcement of learning at home.

We are proud to offer several sites that are accredited by the National Association for Education of Young Children (NAEYC).
