Preschool in Holtsville, NY 00544
The Holyoke, MA center opened its doors in 1986 inside G Building of Holyoke Community College. Although this site is located on the college campus, our enrollment is open to all local families. We do, of course, welcome the children of all faculty and students as well! We invite our Easthampton neighbors to take a look at our center as well; we are a convenient commute!
We offer infant, toddler, preschool, and kindergarten programs. National accreditation insures quality programming and we offer Community Partnership grants, as well as voucher and contracted subsidies for eligible families.Want more information?
The Kids Place utilizes the Creative Curriculum, a nationally recognized curriculum, which you will see evident in all of our learning centers. We at TKP believe that play is childrens work, so we emphasize learning through play. Our classrooms are designed to be age and developmentally appropriate with clearly defined learning centers featuring blocks, manipulatives, art, math, science, and dramatic play. Activity choices are set for children to choose, fostering a sense of independence by finding, using and putting away toys themselves.
We use Teaching Strategies Gold, a brand-new, on-going observational assessment tool that helps our Educators teach with intention by focusing on the individual childs development and learning.
