One of the most critical and formative stages in a child’s development occurs between the ages of 1 and 3 years old. During this time, children undergo rapid physical, cognitive, and emotional growth, and it is when they begin to develop a sense of self and begin to understand their place in the world around them. This early period is essential because the experiences children have during these years lay the foundation for their future learning and development.
At ABODE, we recognize the immense significance of this stage and are dedicated to providing an environment that nurtures each child’s growth. Our approach is centered on helping children build confidence and independence in a supportive and encouraging setting. Through thoughtfully designed activities, opportunities for exploration, and positive reinforcement, we help children feel secure and valued, allowing them to take their first steps toward becoming self-assured individuals. We believe that by fostering a sense of independence at this crucial stage, children gain the confidence to tackle new challenges and develop the skills they will need in the next phase of their lives. Whether it’s learning to communicate effectively, developing social skills, or gaining control over their physical environment, our program ensures that each child is equipped with the emotional resilience, curiosity, and problem-solving abilities they need for continued growth. At ABODE, we are committed to giving every child a strong start, empowering them with the tools to navigate the world and embrace the opportunities ahead.
PRESCHOOL 4-5
Our preschool program serves as an exciting and dynamic transition from foundational play into more structured learning, where the fun of discovery meets a comprehensive curriculum. At this stage, children are introduced to the world of academic exploration in an engaging, hands-on way that encourages curiosity and a love of learning. It is here that students begin to see how enjoyable and rewarding discovering new ideas and topics can be, as we create an environment that celebrates creativity, imagination, and exploration.
Our teachers play a vital role in bringing the curriculum to life by providing exceptional projects, activities, and games that make learning feel like an adventure. Each lesson is carefully designed to foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills while covering key academic areas such as math, language arts, geography, science, and social studies. Whether it’s learning about numbers through interactive counting games, exploring the basics of language through storytelling and songs, or delving into the wonders of the world with age-appropriate geography activities, we make sure that every topic is introduced in a way that is both fun and educational.
In addition to academic subjects, our preschool program also emphasizes social-emotional growth. Through group activities and collaborative projects, children learn how to communicate, work with others, and develop empathy, all while enjoying the process of learning. We believe in creating an atmosphere where children feel motivated and excited to explore new ideas, helping them build the foundation for future academic success while instilling a lifelong love for learning. At the heart of it all is the joy of discovering something new and knowing that learning can be both fun and meaningful.
KINDERGARTEN 5-6
Our Montessori enrichment program seamlessly extends into the kindergarten level, offering a unique and enriching educational experience that helps students develop and master essential skills they will carry with them throughout their academic journey. At this stage, children engage in an advanced level of learning where they build a solid foundation in key areas such as logic, critical thinking, and problem-solving. These skills are crucial for developing the ability to think independently, make informed decisions, and approach challenges with confidence and creativity.
Kindergarten at ABODE is more than just a preparatory year; it is the final step before transitioning to grade school, and we make sure our students are not only ready but excited for this next chapter. Through our Montessori-inspired approach, children have the freedom to explore topics that interest them while receiving guidance and structure from our dedicated teachers. The hands-on learning experiences and individualized instruction ensure that each child is progressing at their own pace while mastering fundamental academic concepts. As they explore the world of logic and reasoning, students engage in complex problem-solving tasks that encourage them to think critically and analytically. These activities are designed to challenge their cognitive abilities and help them develop the resilience needed to face future academic challenges. In addition to these intellectual skills, our program also emphasizes the development of social and emotional intelligence, encouraging collaboration, empathy, and effective communication with peers.
By the time they complete our Montessori enrichment program, students at ABODE are not simply prepared to step into grade school—they are equipped to leap into it with confidence, curiosity, and a strong sense of self. They will have acquired not only the academic skills necessary for success but also the confidence and mindset that will empower them to embrace the challenges of their future educational experiences. At ABODE, we ensure that each child’s transition to the next level is a smooth, positive, and exciting journey.
BEFORE AND AFTER SCHOOL CARE 6+
Our school-aged programming at ABODE is designed to extend the learning experience beyond the traditional school day, offering children ages 6-12 the opportunity to continue growing and thriving in a safe, engaging, and supportive environment. After the bell rings, we provide a range of activities that keep children intellectually stimulated, creatively engaged, and socially connected. We believe in fostering a well-rounded educational experience, so our programming includes a variety of extracurricular opportunities that allow students to explore their interests and passions. Whether it’s through art, music, sports, coding, or gardening, children have the chance to participate in activities that not only enhance their skills but also help them build confidence, teamwork, and leadership abilities. These extracurriculars are thoughtfully designed to encourage self-expression, teamwork, and personal growth, while also giving children the freedom to discover new hobbies and talents. In addition to these enriching activities, our school-aged program offers dedicated homework help, ensuring that children stay on top of their academic responsibilities. Our exceptional staff provides personalized support, helping students complete their homework in a calm and focused environment. With the guidance of our team, children gain a deeper understanding of their schoolwork, develop good study habits, and build the skills necessary for academic success. At ABODE, we believe that learning doesn’t stop when the school day ends. Our program is built to nurture not just the academic growth of students, but also their social and emotional development. By creating a balanced and enriching environment, we provide children with the opportunity to grow as individuals and prepare them for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Through a mix of structured activities, creative exploration, and academic support, our school-aged programming ensures that each child continues to thrive even after the bell rings.
