PRESCHOOL PROGRAMS
At Prince William Academy's Preschool, we foster a joyful and enriching environment where children can explore and grow. Our experienced educators engage young minds through play-based activities, nurturing curiosity and creativity while laying a strong foundation for future academic success.
INFANT PROGRAM
At Prince William Academy, our Infant Program is designed to provide a nurturing, safe, and engaging environment for children aged 6 weeks to 16 months. We understand that this is a crucial time in your child’s development, and we are committed to offering personalized care that supports their physical, emotional, and cognitive growth.
Our infant room is thoughtfully designed with the needs of our youngest learners in mind. The space features comfortable furniture, natural wooden materials, and engaging equipment that reflects objects infants will encounter in their daily lives. This helps foster a sense of familiarity and security while introducing them to new experiences in a supportive setting.
A separate, private, and quiet sleep area ensures each infant has a peaceful and restful nap time, with soothing music played to help them feel comforted and relaxed. The eating area provides various seating options, including sturdy high chairs and child-sized tables and chairs. Infants are introduced to independent eating with plates, utensils, and cups designed for their developmental stage, helping foster self-sufficiency at mealtime.
Our spacious play area offers ample opportunities for movement and exploration, encouraging both gross and fine motor skill development. The area supports social interaction, cognitive development, and emotional growth, as infants begin to explore their surroundings and engage with peers.
At Prince William Academy, we recognize that infant learning is deeply influenced by relationships and context. Our loving teachers play a vital role in providing the interaction, support, and attention that infants need to thrive. Each infant receives personalized care with our 1:4 teacher-to-student ratio, ensuring that every child’s developmental needs are met with close attention and care. We work closely with parents to establish learning objectives for each child, and progress is reviewed twice a year during parent-teacher meetings. Our approach allows infants to develop at their own pace, with freedom within limits, in a nurturing and stimulating environment.
We also believe in the importance of open and frequent communication with parents. To keep you informed about your child’s daily activities, milestones, and development, we use a dedicated communication app. Through the app, parents receive regular updates, photos, and messages from teachers, ensuring that you are always connected and informed about your child’s experience at Prince William Academy.
We invite you to come and experience our Infant Program, where we provide a home-away-from-home environment filled with care, learning, and development for your little one.
TODDLER PROGRAM
At Prince William Academy, our Toddler Program, designed for children aged 16 months to 2 years, provides a warm and stimulating environment that helps ease the transition from home to their first educational setting. We recognize the significance of these early years in a child's development and are committed to offering a space where children feel safe, cared for, and engaged in meaningful learning experiences.
Our program is carefully designed to nurture your child’s development across multiple areas—cognitive, emotional, and social—through hands-on activities, exploration, and guided learning. We emphasize:
-
Personalized Attention: With a low teacher-to-child ratio, each child benefits from individualized attention, ensuring that their unique needs and interests are supported.
-
Focus on Social and Emotional Development: Our caring teachers foster an environment that helps children develop essential social skills, such as sharing, cooperation, and self-regulation. These skills are critical as they build the foundation for future success both in and out of the classroom.
-
Hands-On Learning: Toddlers are naturally curious and eager to explore. Our program encourages this curiosity through engaging, age-appropriate activities that promote problem-solving, sensory experiences, and early motor skills development.
-
Language and Early Literacy: We introduce young children to language in fun and interactive ways, helping them build the foundations for communication and early literacy. Our program includes weekly Spanish and Mandarin classes, giving children an early introduction to new languages in a fun and interactive setting.
-
Creative Expression and Movement: Our Toddler Program includes weekly Kids Yoga and Music classes to promote physical movement, self-expression, and creativity. These activities help develop fine and gross motor skills, coordination, and a sense of rhythm, while allowing toddlers to explore their imagination.
-
Safe, Active Play: Physical activity is an essential part of healthy growth. Our spacious outdoor play areas give children the opportunity to move, explore, and interact with nature in a secure environment, promoting both physical health and a sense of independence.
-
Routine and Structure: Children thrive with routine. Our Toddler Program provides a balanced daily structure that offers consistency while allowing flexibility for individual needs. This helps children feel secure and ready to explore new learning opportunities.
We are dedicated to providing a holistic and enriching experience that encourages your child's natural curiosity and supports their growth in every aspect.
