Our Children

Children learn by doing, by figuring out how things work, by experiencing themselves in space and in relationship to other children. This is how children learn about themselves and the world around them.

A preschooler’s whole world centers on his or her interests and feelings. We help children learn to use language to express their wants and needs, to handle disappointments and to get along with others.

Emmanuel Preschool is responsive to the individual needs of each child enrolled in our classes. Parent conferences are held twice each year, to review a child’s progress.

If parents or teachers have specific concerns, we plan together to address them. We help link families to services through Child Find or private therapists if needed.
