Programs

At Red Balloon Early Learning Centers, we offer a range of programs designed to meet the needs of children at different stages of development.

*Infant/Toddler Program*

We believe that children's play is the foundation of future inventions. That's why we provide high-quality care to your infant or toddler by hiring the most loving and nurturing staff. Our safe and healthy environments are tailored to the needs of young children, with attention given to space, room atmosphere, and content of play equipment. We provide a nurturing environment and train our staff to respond promptly to the needs of each child. Our small class sizes allow for plenty of one-on-one time with teachers, and our individualized curriculum is based on the Creative Curriculum, which covers areas such as art, music, stories, fine & gross motor skills, and more. Outdoor time is made available twice per day, and we offer walks in the stroller and playtime in the toddler playground when the weather permits.

*Preschool & 4K Program*

Our preschool and 4K programs provide the right environment for children to explore and learn at their own pace. We believe in creating a safe and healthy environment that encourages children to make their own choices and explore their surroundings. Our classrooms are warm and welcoming, with a variety of safe toys and materials to engage children in play and learning. Our teachers plan and implement lesson activities based on the Creative Curriculum, which covers a range of topics and skills, including literacy, math, science, social studies, and creative arts. We balance indoor and outdoor activities, active and quiet times, and group and individual times, providing a well-rounded experience for each child.
