Playgroup Prep
Ages 3 & 4
Playgroup Prep is a joyful and intentional early childhood program designed to support 3- and 4-year-olds as they prepare for private school admissions playgroups and school life beyond.
Through expertly guided play, observation, and developmental activities, we help children strengthen the skills most valued by independent schools: communication, cooperation, adaptability, and curiosity.
In each session, our experienced educators facilitate engaging, developmentally appropriate activities while gently observing how children approach new environments, interact with peers and adults, and navigate transitions, turn-taking, and problem-solving.
Families receive detailed developmental feedback and personalized guidance, helping them understand their child’s readiness and how to best support them during the admissions process and beyond.
