3 Years Old

Our Preschool Room is all about helping your little one build confidence and independence, setting the stage for a smooth transition into their next big adventure.

A Place Where Educational Play Activities Meet School Readiness

We create a warm, playful environment where your child can discover, learn, and grow every day.

At this age, kids are all about curiosity and exploring the world around them. That’s why we’ve created a warm, welcoming classroom where hands-on learning and discovery take center stage. Our teachers gently introduce your child to a more structured, classroom-like environment and routine, making the transition to Pre-K a little easier. They’ll get used to following a schedule and engaging in early academic activities while still having plenty of fun. We also start building important skills like science and Spanish, giving your child a well-rounded education.

Innovative Teaching Methods

Our teachers use innovative and adaptable techniques to inspire curiosity and cultivate a love for learning. Through methods like project-based activities and interactive storytelling, we captivate your child’s mind and imagination. Active participation encourages your child to develop critical thinking skills and express ideas confidently.

Personalized Learning Experiences

Every child is unique, and so is the way they learn. That’s why we tailor activities to match each child’s interests and strengths. Focusing on what makes them special, we help build their confidence and ensure they grow and thrive at their own pace. Our goal is simple: to spark a love of learning that will stay with them long after their time at First Steps Learning Center.

Building a Community of Learners

In our Preschool Room, we focus on more than just academics—we’re here to help your child grow socially and emotionally. Through fun group activities, your child will build critical social skills like communicating, working together, and making friends. We believe learning is something kids do best together, supporting and learning from one another.

Frequently Asked Questions

We understand you may have questions about our curriculum, teaching methods, and other important information. Here are some of the most frequently asked questions by parents like you.

Will my child receive any academic instruction at this age?

Absolutely. At this age, your child will begin to explore foundational academic skills in a fun and natural way. We focus on building early language, math, and problem-solving skills through engaging activities and play-based learning. We aim to cultivate a genuine love for learning rather than emphasize rigorous academics, ensuring your child enjoys every step of their educational journey.

Our curriculum blends the proven Learning Beyond Curriculum with the creative Reggio Emilia approach to give your child a rich and well-rounded learning experience. At its heart, our method focuses on learning through exploration, teamwork, and connections with teachers and classmates. STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) is woven into everyday activities, sparking curiosity and building essential skills through hands-on projects and discovery.

Our preschool program strongly emphasizes social-emotional development. We focus on helping children understand and express their emotions in healthy ways, fostering empathy, and building resilience. Through group activities and collaborative projects, your child will learn to share, take turns, and work as part of a team. Our teachers guide children through these moments by modeling positive interactions and providing gentle support as they work through challenges.

Discovery centers are carefully designed learning areas with materials and activities that align with the children’s interests and the weekly learning objectives. These centers encourage hands-on exploration of science, literacy, art, and math subjects. For example, a science center might include magnets, magnifying glasses, or plant-growing activities, while an art center provides tools for self-expression. These interactive spaces encourage curiosity, problem-solving, and independent thinking, allowing children to engage with their world meaningfully.

The safety and security of our students are our top priorities. We have strict policies in place to ensure the well-being of all children in our school. All staff members and teachers undergo background checks and receive training in emergency protocols. We also have strict protocols for pick-up and drop-off and visitor policies to ensure the safety of all children in our care. Our classrooms are also regularly sanitized and cleaned to promote a healthy environment.
