Drop Off Programs

Kinder Club

Designed to foster your child’s development

Kinder Club is a drop-off program that helps preschool age children build skills that prepare them for formal learning settings. We offer sensory and art-based activities to help develop your little one’s fine motor skills and confidence. We also use Kindergarten School Readiness checklists and hands-on learning to help your child build important skills. By encouraging children to explore, imagine, and create, they in turn enhance and develop their critical thinking skills, creativity, and ability to express themselves!
