Finding a Quality Preschool for Toddlers

Finding a quality preschool for children can be quite challenging. There are several benefits to sending toddlers to a preschool rather than a daycare center. A quality preschool program helps children to develop their self identity. It also helps toddlers to discover and develop their positive attitudes toward learning. Preschools provide interesting learning tools and help the toddlers to gain self confidence.

They also help children to understand their capability to remember and build on things they have learned.  Preschools also help children to develop their creative expressions through music, art and drama and by using their unique self expressions.

The most important factor in selecting a quality preschool is to make sure that it provides a safe and secure learning space for the children. It should be comfortable and provide areas where toddlers can enjoy activities without being easily distracted. It should have a staff that makes children feel comfortable and nurtured. The teachers and staff should be very caring, responsive and sensitive to the requests and needs of the children. They should get involved with the children and help them accomplish projects, solve problems and give adequate space and time for indoor and outdoor activities.

The location of the preschool is also an important factor that parents need to take into consideration. Most parents prefer to send their children to a preschool which is near to their home or workplace. As the child needs to be picked up or dropped by their parents, the preschool selected should be located nearby.

The amount of fees charged may also vary between different preschools. Some preschools may be subsidized by the state government for providing education to children who come from low- income families. Most charge monthly fees. It is also important to verify whether the preschool follows well defined curriculum. There may be some preschools that follow the same curriculum as daycare centers, while others may be preparing the children for kindergarten.

Why our Parents Love ACA:

Click Here to Read what some of our parents have to say about ACA.
“We came to ACA under very urgent and special circumstances, having to identify daycare within a 24 hour window, for two little guys, 18 months and 3 years….from my first call to ACA, Miss Pat, opened her arms, literally, to our family and our unique situation…giving countless hugs, drying our tears, and providing sincere words of encouragement when those transition times were the toughest. It was a prayer answered to be able to place our little ones in a Christian childcare facility, and now 3 years later our prayers have been answered ten-fold with the compassionate care, dedication, consistency and excellent academic program in place at ACA. The entire staff, from office to classroom and afterschool go above and beyond what we have ever found in any other childcare facility. We have grown from our little guys screaming each morning when being left for the first time in their lives in a daycare facility to struggling to get them in the car in the afternoons because they do not want to leave ! We have heard countless other parents describing the same scenario with their little ones. We know our boys are in a home away from home when they are at ACA.”
