Why ABC Time Preschool
We start with a strong foundation–a highly qualified teacher, dedicated to fostering the development of the whole child, socially and emotionally, as well as academically.
We continue with a welcoming space and an environment that engages each child. Next, we enroll a limited amount of children ages 2.5 – 5 years old to ensure more individual attention.
Then we have lots of fun while we learn and explore science, literacy, math, and the arts! We finish with constantly communicating with our parents regarding each child’s growth, building a home/school connection.
That’s how we create a preschool for each child to succeed, while instilling in them a love for learning.

Teacher/Owner
I have been teaching for over 20 years in a variety of capacities, however my passion has always been working with pre-school age children. I love their natural curious nature and being able to use their curiosity to open the door to endless learning opportunities. I am a mother myself to 2 school age children. I understands the difficulty in finding quality care in a structured, playful learning environment. It was one of the reason I chose to open ABC Time Home Preschool. I hold a Master Teacher Credential in Early Childhood Development from the State of California Teaching Commission and a Bachelor Degree from Florida State University. I am CPR certified and holds a Childcare Health & Safety Certification.

Education
“If a child can’t learn the way we teach, maybe we should teach the way they learn.”–Ignacio Estrada
At ABC Time Preschool we do not subscribe to only one teaching methodology. Instead we take the best practices from each to ensure a comprehensive learning environment. This allows each child to explore a variety of ways to learn, and become an active participant in their learning.
Our Curriculum: Theme- based
We use fun, age-appropriate themes to provide a meaningful, interesting context to learn pre-reading and math skills, as well as to introduce the children to the wonderful world of science.
Activities
PLAY, LEARN, and GROW–Bringing FUN to the learning process!
At ABC Time Home Preschool we understand that the best way for children to learn is through hands on, multi-sensory experiences. That is why we use dramatic play, music, reading, art, and science to explore our themes. We use each medium to allow for an immersive learning experience.
Some activities include re-telling stories by acting them out, listening & dancing to music related to the theme, arts & crafts, science experiments such as OOblick, Gak, and Exploding rainbows to name a few. Our activities are designed with purpose and bring FUN to the learning process.
Additionally, we have an Emmy nominated music teacher that visits every other week. This is just another example of the high quality activities we offer.
Friendship
Smiles and laughter are daily occurrences as the children form friendships and use teamwork to come together. Days are filled with new discoveries, friends, and happy memories.
Building friendships are important to social development. Learning to listen, taking turns, cooperation and patience are important skills to practice and develop during these formative years.
Our small group dynamic allows for more interaction and is optimal for developing lasting friendships.
Development
We offer group as well as individual activities so that each child can progress at their natural pace, ensuring success as they move through our program. It is important to us that every child is given the opportunity to develop the skills necessary to be successful in Kindergarten and beyond. Therefore, we teach to the child’s ability and interest. We do this by working 1-1 with each child and develop fun activities to teach specific skills.
We also know that social & emotional development is just as important as cognitive development. Many kindergarten teachers would argue that the social/emotional development of a child is more important to them and the child’s success in school. The small group dynamic of our class allows the children to really interact with one another and learn listening skills, the importance of waiting one’s turn and taking turns, as well as how to share with one another. When situations arise, as they always do with children, we talk about how things make us feel, and how what we say and do affects our friends. The children in our program grow to be compassionate, caring children with an awareness for those around them.
Emotionally, we help our younger children with any attachment issues they may have in a supportive, caring manner. For our older children, we encourage independence and taking responsibility for their belongings. An important skill to learn as they move on to Kindergarten.
