Through age-appropriate conversations that honor each child’s race, culture, and identity, we provide responsive, relationship-centered childcare that encourages emotional growth and meaningful learning.

KORA EARLY PRESCHOOL: 2 - 4 years
(Small Classroom: Maximum 15 Preschoolers)

Our Kora Early Preschool classroom offers a nurturing, play-based learning environment where children develop independence, confidence, problem-solving skills, and meaningful friendships. Through art, music, language, imaginative play, and hands-on exploration, children are encouraged to discover, create, and grow.

What truly sets Kora apart is our commitment to small class sizes and exceptional teacher-to-child ratios. With a maximum of just 15 children and typically three teachers in the classroom, we offer individualized attention and meaningful interactions that support each child's unique developmental needs. Our dedicated Allomothers build strong, trusting relationships with children while fostering a sense of belonging, security, and confidence.

Our Montessori-inspired approach balances child-led discovery with thoughtful teacher-guided experiences, encouraging curiosity, creativity, independence, and social-emotional growth. We strive to provide a strong foundation for lifelong learning in a warm, engaging, and supportive environment.
