The Learning Nest

Educational Programs

Ages 2.5–5 years old

Built on decades of experience, our preschool program is designed to nurture each student’s emerging sense of self through an academically-focused curriculum, qualified and caring teachers, creative play with friends, and a supportive environment designed for exploration.

  • TWO YEAR OLD PROGRAM

    With so many physical, cognitive, and social milestones to achieve in such a short period of time, our preschool curriculum for two year old’s encourages children to learn through exploration. Our teachers create a supportive, loving environment that fosters autonomy and self-confidence in these newly-independent and increasingly-social students. This class is offered 9AM-11:30AM, two days a week with the option of early start or late pickup (perfect for if they have a sibling in an older class).

  • THREE YEAR OLD PROGRAM

    With an array of fun-filled learning centers, our three year old program focuses on building cognitive performance through child-initiated, cooperative play. Our teachers introduce these active and enthusiastic learners to a more structured curriculum and new academic concepts in language, literacy, mathematics, and science. With a consistent daily schedule, classroom roles, and focused enrichment classes, our three year old’s gain a sense of self-reliance and independence. This class is offered 9AM-12:30PM, two or three days a week and includes eating a packed lunch from home. A great addition to this day would be early start or late pickup for more playtime with friends.

  • FOUR & FIVE YEAR OLD PROGRAM

    Our four and five year old program focuses on the skills your child needs for Kindergarten readiness. Our teachers prepare our students for the academic challenges and environment they will encounter in Kindergarten and beyond, by tailoring the curriculum and lessons to the child’s needs, encouraging meaningful learning experiences through play, and instilling a sense of responsibility, leadership, and independence during the Pre-K year. This class is offered 9AM-12:30PM, four days a week and includes eating a packed lunch from home. A great addition to this day would be early start or late pickup for more playtime with friends.

A Typical Day

At The Learning Nest

We begin with Circle Time—a chance to connect, sing songs, explore the calendar and weather, and build social-emotional skills like listening, turn-taking, and speaking in a group.

During Center Play & Teacher-Directed Activities, children explore hands-on centers like math, art, science, dramatic play, language, music, and more—plus small-group learning led by our amazing teachers.

Then it’s time to move! Our students enjoy both Outdoor Play on our brand new nature-inspired playscape features slides built into grassy hills, tunnels, trucks, a rustic fort, and a secret garden-style space with blooming flowers, tree stumps, and logs for climbing and exploring. Indoor Play on rainy days in our indoor playground. We also offer time in our Sensory Room—a calming, enriching space designed to support sensory exploration and regulation.

Snack Time includes healthy options provided by TLN, and our older students enjoy Lunch Time with friends and packed meals from home.

We also offer enriching monthly experiences that help little learners grow inside and out:

Music Class – A joyful time for singing, rhythm and movement, helping children develop listening skills, coordination, and a love for music.
Christian Storytime – A gentle, preschool-friendly time to talk about God, kindness, love, and core values like gratitude, honesty, and helping others.
Kids in Motion – Movement-based fun with stretching, gym games, and physical play that builds strength and coordination.
People & Places – A playful introduction to social studies, where we explore community helpers, traditions, and the big world around us.

Every moment is thoughtfully designed to support growth, confidence, and joy—inside and out! 💛
