Pre-kindergarten program

It’s their senior year of preschool! We get them ready for the years ahead.

Pre-Kindergarten is a vital building block to kindergarten success. We guarantee that children achieve significant development advancements, learn to communicate effectively, and build collaborative skills, by working independently and in groups through a robust early childhood education approach. Our Pre-K program focuses on:

  • Problem-solving
  • Careful and responsive listening
  • Implementing language in learning
  • Collaborative social skills

This age is all about expression, when kids really start to form their own ideas about what they want to play and how they want to create. Every day in our preschool classroom, your child will explore science experiments, create artwork, and play pretend—all the skills needed for their big next step: kindergarten!

At Cloud Nest, we put safety first to protect our families and staff. Visit our health and safety page to learn more.

The Cloud Nest Daycare educational method designed to educate the whole child, not simply academically, but socially, emotionally and physically. Each aspect of the Cloud Nest Daycare child development program provides knowledge and stimulation to your child’s brain in different ways.

Social skills are a big focus in pre-K as your child gets ready for kindergarten. Your child will work on talking through big feelings and resolving conflicts with words. They’ll also talk about themselves and their families, and learn about each other’s similarities and differences.

In a small classroom setting, children receive personalized attention from our state-certified teacher. Using nationally recognized, research-based curricula, our program provides a strong foundation for your child to move on to first grade the next school year.

Kids of Pre-K age flourish through routine. We use a proper schedule with creative pictures to show them what’s coming up next! This keeps them feeling confident about what to expect for the day and be part of the plan.
