Classrooms
LifeSpring Preschool is a developmentally based center. The ages listed below are used as our guideline to ensure each child is enrolled in a classroom that fits his or her developmental needs.
Starfish Infant Program (6 mo - 2 yrs)
Our Starfish class is designed for our youngest friends at LifeSpring! Often children who enroll in our Starfish class are first timers to daycare. We understand that this can be big transition for both child and parents. We encourage parents to call and check in as much as they want and have an open-door policy. Our goal is to provide a loving, nurturing, clean and safe environment for our little ones. During their time in this class infants and toddlers will be invited to explore the classroom and have age appropriate stimulating activities to encourage their growth and development. We have one program and two classrooms for our infants: Starfish 1 & Starfish 2!
Dolphin Class (2.5 yrs - 3 yrs)
Our Dolphin class is designed for our older toddlers and younger preschoolers. Comfortably transitioning children from our Infant Program and introducing the routines and structure of our Preschool Program. In this class one of the exciting things we begin to encourage and support potty training once parents, child, and teacher decide they are ready! The classroom set up becomes slightly more structured into areas of the class such as dramatic play, science/exploration, and table top activities Children are encouraged to explore the areas of the classroom and engage with activities. They begin learning all aspects of our schools theme based curriculum with a fun and inviting approach.
Sea Turtle Class (3 yrs)
Our Sea turtle class is designed for our 3 year olds. In this class some of our friends are still in the process of mastering the potty and we support them wherever they may be in their journey. Our Sea turtle class enjoys daily circle times, stories, art, crafts and the beginning stages of fine motor development that will later lead to early writing skills. In this class children begin to become more independent whether it be in their bathroom skills, self-help skills or choices of what activities they engage with for the day. Our Sea Turtles have a large classroom space to explore and many different areas set up with age appropriate stimulating activities!
Seahorse & Jellyfish Classes (3/4 yrs)
Our Seahorse & Jellyfish Classes are for our older 3 and 4 year old’s. In these classes our older preschoolers are encouraged to have mastered their bathroom skills. The classrooms provide a fun, inviting yet more structured day to day schedule. They begin to work on the early stages of Kindergarten readiness skills such as name recognition, letter recognition and phonological awareness. All aspects of our theme based curriculum are implemented. In this class we focus on positive relationships with others, and building other friends up. We use positive redirection to help promote positive behaviors and a successful classroom environment.
Octopus Class (TK & PRE-K age)
Our Octopus Class is specifically designed for children who will be attending Kindergarten the next year. Children placed in this class typically will be 5 by September 1st the following year. In this classroom we focus primarily on Kindergarten readiness skills. We provide a fun and engaging structured routine. Our goal is to give our students a taste of what Kindergarten will be like through fun and optional weekly Home Work packets, Raising a Reader Program, Star of the Week, Science Fridays and more!
