School Age/After School at Bambinos International Learning Center

"It is difficult to find a program that provides a learning environment for the children of working parents. Most programs with a curriculum do not accommodate a 9 to 5 schedule and conversely, child care centers with longer hours often cannot offer an educational program. Bambinos is committed to education and has found a way to balance fun and curriculum with the long day necessary to facilitate working parents' schedules. And the education components are creative and thoughtful. We love that our children are learning reading and writing combined with art and sign language, science and math combined with music and Spanish in addition to life skills like exercise, gardening and environmental stewardship. This is invaluable to us but is offered at a value that works for our family. We are truly grateful for Bambinos."

JR PRESCHOOL, PRESCHOOL

& PRE-KINDERGARTEN

We offer a Multilingual and an Immersion Pre-school Program. Our preschool programs grow along with your child, teaching essential reading and writing, math, science and social skills in a logical, natural sequence that encourages children to learn step by step.

Monthly themes, weekly topics, and daily activities keep the curriculum focused and fun. We complement this learning experience by bringing a Music Teacher, Yoga teacher, art teacher, and a Sign Language teacher on a weekly basis. Our goal is to have a balance between the nurturing care children received as infants and toddlers and the growing structure and independence that will define their school years.

Jr. Preschool
This classroom is designed to help your child transistion from the Toddler to Pre-School environment. This class is limited to 12 students and our goal is to start introducing a more structured environment. Playing and exploring is a big part of this process. Your child must be at least 34 months of age to be part of this class.

Preschool
The focus of this classroom and its curriculum is to grow and learn with your child at his/her own pace while encouraging exploration. Language development, reading (both to them and with them), letter recognition, writing, and drawing are integral components of our day.

Pre-Kindergarten
Our goal is to get your child ready for kindergarten. Our classroom curriculum includes a letter and number focus for each week, daily calendar and weather, and monthly themes. 0utdoor play, dramatic play, music, art, and movement center on a framework of basic subjects and skill building.
