Programs

Preschool (Ages 2-4)

At Little Atelier, our preschool program offers a Reggio Emilia-inspired experience that sparks curiosity and supports holistic development. Divided into two nurturing groups:

  • Little Matisse (Ages 2-3):
    Our youngest learners explore through sensory play and creative activities, building social skills by interacting with peers and adults. They learn self-expression, follow simple routines, and connect with nature in an environment filled with natural light, open spaces, and art materials that serve as a “third teacher.”

  • Little Picasso (Ages 3-4):
    Expanding on early experiences, this group engages in more complex, project-based activities that encourage collaboration and deeper learning. Guided by caring mentors, children refine their social skills, interact confidently with adults, and explore diverse subjects, laying the foundation for emotional and cognitive growth.

Pre-K (Ages 4-5)

Our private Pre-K program, Little Monet, is thoughtfully designed for 4–5-year-olds to prepare them for kindergarten by prioritizing social-emotional readiness and individualized learning. We nurture key kindergarten readiness skills such as sharing, patience, following routines, accountability for tasks, understanding others’ emotions, and flexibility in problem-solving.

Our Approach:

  • Social-Emotional Growth: Encouraged through creative play and meaningful interactions with both peers and teachers.

  • Academic Learning: Beyond mastering letters and numbers, we explore diverse topics in small groups to tap into each child's unique learning style and spark curiosity.

By blending personalized teaching with emotional development, we ensure that every child leaves Little Atelier confident, adaptable, and well-prepared for kindergarten success.

We offer flexible scheduling to suit your family's needs—choose from full-time or part-time options (2, 3, or 5 days a week) with school hours from 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM. Children bring their own lunch, and we serve morning and afternoon snacks.
