KINDERGARTEN READINESS
The Learning Center – Goals For Preparing A Child For Kindergarten
Long before you take your son or daughter to their first Kindergarten class, you consider ways to prepare them for the upcoming challenge. The Learning Center Kindergarten Readiness program gives your child the best preparation possible.
Our teachers and staff are dedicated to giving each child the rich educational experience they deserve. We believe in educating the whole child. Our teachers work from a curriculum that balances each day with opportunities for intellectual, physical, emotional, and social growth. We provide structured academic lessons but we also believe that children learn well through creative play.
The Learning Center is registered by the State of Connecticut and licensed by the Office of Early Childhood, but it’s our staff that makes TLC the perfect place for your child. Our teachers are highly trained and experienced. They’re also kind and family-oriented and they’re excited about introducing your child to new educational adventures.
Our Philosophy

We believe in educating the whole child - intellectually, physically, emotionally and socially

We Encourage play and exploration using age and developmentally appropriate activities which naturally stimulate a child's creative & cognitive awareness.

Since each child is an individual, we take into consideration unique developmental levels when planning activities.
We Welcome You to the TLC Family
If your child is new to TLC, you’ll be pleased with our safe, secure environment. Your child will enjoy an exciting curriculum that allows them to enjoy new learning experiences every day. You’ll see the many ways your child succeeds when they feel nurtured and cared for.
If your child is already a member of our TLC family, our Kindergarten Readiness program gives them the consistency and continuity children need. They will build new skills with current classmates and make new friends. They’ll enjoy meeting new challenges in a familiar environment.
Helping Your Child Build Confidence
At TLC, we understand that Kindergarten is a big adjustment for any child so we do our best to ease their transition. Our teachers provide activities to help your child build confidence in their developing abilities. We encourage group play to help them embrace new social challenges.
Support Your Child’s Growth and Success
The process of preparing a child to enter school starts with a strong foundation in all areas of development. The progression is continuous, beginning as early as infancy and continuing throughout the Preschool years. Our curriculum supports growth and success in all areas of child development from social and emotional maturity to physical, creative and cognitive development.
When preparing a child for Kindergarten our goal is to ensure that he/she is able to gather social and emotional skills, meet physical milestones, and develop cognitive awareness. We nurture self-help and encourage the creative mind.
