While at Little Einstein your child can take part in a range of activities to enrich multiple areas of their development. One such program is Happy Feet Sports, where every 8 weeks the children can try their hand at a new sport, all free of charge! This helps improve our children's fine and gross motor skills (depending on the sport), and hand-eye coordination, as well as encouraging a healthy lifestyle by making physical activity fun from an early age.

We also offer various other activities across our center including, gardening, music, dance, and more coming very soon. On top of that, older children can enjoy cooking classes, robotics, lego club, and more in our after-school program!

About Our Rooms

Teachers introduce nutritious foods during daily meals and snacks and help children develop independence and good eating habits.

Little Einstein Preschool offers child care services across different classrooms, sorted by age to cater to each groups specific needs. All classrooms offer a balanced mix of quiet and active times, small and large group learning, and teacher-facilitated and child-initiated activities, and what makes them special for each child.

The daily schedule includes age-appropriate reading time, interactive games, and healthy meals. The classrooms offer play-based learning and promote outdoor activities like water and sand play, reading, and artistic expression with chalk.

Cubs/Bears Room - Infants

At Little Einstein Preschool, we understand that every infant is special and unique. Our dedicated infant care teachers take the time to get to know each child’s individual needs and routines, including their feeding and sleeping schedules, and any comfort items they may have.

We customize each baby’s day to ensure that they receive the love and attention they need. During daily routines such as meal times and care routines, our caregivers interact with babies by talking, singing, and playing, turning each moment into a potential learning opportunity. We encourage babies to be active by providing opportunities for tummy time, rolling, crawling, pulling up and reaching. We also take babies outside for fresh air and stroller walks. 

Our curriculum is woven into every child’s daily schedule, and we Enrich, Explore, and Educate during times when the babies are alert and ready to learn. Our teachers post weekly activities on the Classroom Communication Board and Lesson Plans, so families can stay informed.

Giraffe Room - One-year-olds

Little Einstein Preschool offers a well-rounded and balanced day for one-year-olds. Our Education Small Group provides developmentally appropriate activities in math, literacy and science. Our teachers use fun and interactive games to establish a solid foundation for emerging skills. We know that imagination is an important aspect of learning, which is why we make time to gather and share stories every day. 

We focus on sensory experiences in creative arts, sensory play, and open-ended materials. We provide hands-on activities to foster a love of learning through play. We offer opportunities for children to explore blocks and building, languages and books, fine motor and manipulatives, music, dramatic play, and creative arts. Our teachers create a variety of props and learning games to enhance toddlers’ learning and engage their curiosity and imagination. 

Elephants Room - Two-year-olds

We believe that balance is key to a two-year-old’s day at our child care center. Our Monkey’s room provides a mix of quiet and active times, small and large group learning, and child-initiated and teacher-facilitated activities, all of which make for a fun and enriching day! 

Our toddlers learn in small groups every day. We focus on developmentally appropriate math, literacy, and science activities.

Mixed Ages - Monkeys

Our mixed-ages class, the Monkeys, offers an excellent transitional stage between 2 and 3-years-old, to accommodate for the rapid development at this stage of your toddler's life. Elements of both the Elephants and Koalas classrooms are merged so that the step between developmental levels is less daunting and every child's needs are met. It can also help prepare your child for the next stage of their journey with us, by offering a smooth transition and gradual introduction to the milestones of the subsequent 3-year-old's room. 

Koalas Room - Three-years-olds

We gather all our three-year-olds as a group to talk about our day, plan our learning journey, and share stories. Children explore and experiment in small groups as they solve problems and record their observations. Our teachers integrate elements of science, math, social studies, and creative arts each day to encourage children to develop their skills. 

Our teachers often read stories aloud to foster a love for reading and encourage children to read. They plan rich literacy engagements every day that develop essential skills such as concepts of print, phonological awareness, letter-sound knowledge, vocabulary, oral language, listening, and reading comprehension. 

Children lead their own learning during our Enriching Playtime. Our center is designed to give children independence and promote unique learning opportunities. Children can choose from a variety of activities including dramatic play, construction, literacy, writing, creative arts, math/manipulatives, science, computers, easel and sensory tables.

Lions Room - Four-year-olds 

Once your child enters our Lions room, we begin to incorporate a more structured learning day to help ready them for their upcoming school days. We aim to teach emotional, social, and cognitive concepts that are easily understood and incorporated into their daily lives. Our preschoolers will experience a range of activities that will introduce them to different developmental concepts:

Our curriculum includes:

🗣️ Language and Literacy: Learning to associate sounds with written words, identifying all letters of the alphabet, and learning to write their name and familiar words. They will also explore shapes, numbers, colors, and much more!

🔣 Mathematics: Learning to match, sort, make comparisons between objects, and understand complex concepts like over, under, behind, and in front.

🔬 Learning About the World & Science:  Participating in simple investigations, predicting results based on past experiences, and learning the importance of collecting, describing, and recording information.

🧠 Approaches to Learning: Developing an eagerness to learn about new ideas, maintaining concentration despite distractions, and increasing the ability to find more than one solution to a question or problem.

🏃‍♂️ Physical Health & Development: Improving hand-eye coordination through ball games, growing independence in personal hygiene, and using pencils, markers, scissors, and paintbrushes with increased control.

🧑‍🎓 At Little Einstein Preschool, we believe that learning should be fun and engaging. We strive to provide a nurturing environment that encourages exploration and discovery while preparing our preschoolers for a successful future.
