We believe that the hallmark of a healthy bond is trust. Teachers at Little Blue help young children to develop trust in themselves, their bodies and abilities. When adults trust children to navigate their own investigations of the world, they learn how to accomplish a goal, make mistakes and keep trying.
The Little Blue Preschool offers a warm & cozy, family-like atmosphere where you and your child will feel comfortable & welcome. As a small neighborhood school, we seek to reinforce the connected feeling that you & your child share at home.
At the Little Blue Preschool, we believe that the most important step in offering an exceptional early educational experience is love. We know that forming loving relationships with adults & other children is fundemental in fostering confident & conscientious young learners.
The curriculum at the Little Blue Preschool focuses on the internationally recognized High Scope model, emphasizing play-based experiential learning. The teacher's role is to act as a guide, creating endless opportunities for inspiration, experimentation and sharing control with adults & other students.
Through love, trust & support, the children at Little Blue learn to perfect their naturally intuitive problem solving skills. We support children in finding healthy ways to communicate their desires, needs & emotions. During play, teachers encourage children to think ahead & then reflect back on their ideas & actions.
Through sharing power, the teachers gain authentic support from the children to achieve the classroom goals of harmony and a healthy atmosphere in which all children can learn. Teachers introduce ideas & activities that expand each child's understanding of the world while allowing children to lead teachers in play, group activities & helping to guide the daily routine.
