And just like that… the first days of school are officially complete! 🎒✨

From our littlest babies settling into cozy classroom cuddles to our big kids exploring the playground, it’s been a week full of big smiles, happy giggles, and brand-new routines.

We are so proud of every single one of our students! Rest up this weekend, everyone—we’ll see you Monday! ❤️

🧠 Did you know that 90% of a child's brain development happens before the age of 5?

Because those early years are so critical, we strive to provide purposeful, engaging activities for even our youngest learners throughout each day. Simple, playful exploration—like navigating a colorful tunnel—builds spatial awareness, motor skills, and confidence.

We love creating environments where our littlest students can truly thrive, connect, and develop!

Science is always better when you get to see it in action! 🌋🧪

Hands-on experiments spark everyday curiosity and encourage our little learners to ask big questions about the world.

Nothing beats a summer water day! 💦☀️
Behind all the splashing and laughter, children are boosting their motor skills, exploring sensory limits, and building crucial social confidence through shared play.

Research shows that reading to infants and toddlers has a massive impact on their future success. When we look at a book together, we aren't just telling a story—we are actively building the neural pathways responsible for speech, comprehension, and emotional intelligence.

Pro-tip for this age: Don't worry about reading every single word on the page! Pointing at the pictures, making funny animal sounds, and letting them turn the pages is exactly how early literacy starts.

Summer is in full swing at the ELC! 💦☀️

Water play is one of our favorite ways to cool off. But if you look closely, you'll see a lot more than just fun happening here—it's sensory exploration, fine motor building, and early social connection all in one.

Foundational readiness 🤝 Whole-child development.

For our littlest learners age 3 and under, joyful, messy play is the absolute best way to learn. We are dedicated to setting them up for a lifetime of future success, but we are equally committed to nurturing the whole child exactly where they are today.

We are ready to soak up every minute of summer fun! 😎

There is so much learning that can happen through music for our earliest of learners 🎶✨ From exploring sounds and rhythm to moving their bodies and interacting with friends, our little learners are learning through every shake, tap, and dance move 💛

We only have TWO spots remaining before we begin holding spots for August enrollment. Openings like these are hard to come by, and enrolled families always receive future enrollment preference here, The Nature Schools, and LaFontaine Preparatory School.
