Supporting your preschooler’s creativity and independence.
At Highland Playschool, our Preschool program promotes a balance of positive learning and play for three year olds because we understand that children learn best through play. Our bright and colorful classrooms are a stimulating environment where children experience a variety of themed activities as they become great explorers of their classroom and the world around them. Highland Playschool is a daycare center that believes in allowing children to develop at their own individual pace and we are supportive of all styles of learning.
Our Preschoolers are playing and working to learn:
Our experienced and dedicated teachers are educated in child development. They help create a childcare environment where your children are continuously nurtured with positive words and hugs as they provide a well-rounded program to strengthen social, cognitive and motor skills, as well as support your child’s creativity and independence.
Weather permitting, your child’s day includes outdoor play in our fully-secure playground. Plus, we provide a healthy breakfast and afternoon snack that follow all state guidelines and as well as milk for your child at lunchtime. Contact us to learn more.
