Early Learners International Preschool
ABOUT US
Early Learners International Preschool opened on July 1, 2016. Since our opening we pride ourselves on providing top-notch education in a nurturing environment where your child will feel safe and happy and enjoy their first experience of school.
At Early Learners International Preschool, we are dedicated to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment for young children to explore, discover, and grow. Our preschool offers a comprehensive early childhood education program designed to enrich the lives of our students through engaging learning experiences. We believe in fostering a love for learning and helping children develop essential skills for their future success. Our goal is to nurture children and facilitate well rounded development in the domains of ethics, intellect, physique, social-emotional skills and aesthetics. The interests, needs and abilities of the children are always taken into consideration. Through life experiences, sensory encounters, exploration and games, children’s holistic development can be fostered.
We have an enthusiastic team of teachers, who use their creativity to develop an inspiring learning environment for the children within our care. Our team emphasizes that early childhood education lays the foundation for life-long learning and whole person development.
Our philosophy is to respect every child, nurture a loving heart, develop their passion for learning, develop the potential and cultivate the mind. To achieve these goals, we provide a warm and stimulating learning environment staffed with professional teachers who love children and are also passionate about education. Using our advanced level of curriculum for each class, as well as using age appropriate common core standards, our students will be well prepared for their next level of education and everyday experiences, resulting in well-rounded children.
