At Tiny Tots Preschool, we focus on each child as a unique individual who is accepted and valued.  We utilize a developmental approach, offering diverse opportunities for physical, emotional, cognitive and social growth. Children learn at different rates in different ways. 

Our enrichment activities include arts and crafts, story time, gardening, indoor and outdoor free play, music, observing nature at our duck pond, simple cooking, sharing, field trips and many more.  A new unit is introduced each month with activities surrounding the topic.  A monthly newsletter is sent home so our families can stay connected to our learning experiences.

Tiny Tots Preschool follows the public school calendar.  We are open Monday-Friday. Your child can attend for 3 hours or bring their lunch and stay for 4 hours.
