We are Not just daycare. At our center we strive to provide a fun play based, open ended learning approach. We like to get messy and make mistakes. Social and emotional development drives everyone of our activities and conversations. It is our goal to make every child feel safe as they grow into who they are, while supporting parents/caregivers also. Our lead teacher has over 25 years of experience from coaching/swim lessons, art docent at the children's museum, preschool teacher, nanny and day care operater. Our center keeps enrollment numbers low so that your child can socialize while also receiving individual care and attention. We look forward to growing with you.
Our goal to support/foster children's natural curiosity and imagination while providing them with the opportunity to learn a second language in the process. Our innovative curriculum encompasses early learning and second language acquisition in a fun, stimulating environment. We have created a beautiful space for children to learn about themselves, their community and the world we live in. Cometa Playschool is a Spanish language and cultural experience for children ages 2.5 years old through pre-K. Our program is designed to inspire children to learn Spanish through play, music, artistic expression and more! Language Programs: Children meet at Cometa to play, discover and learn Spanish together. Our daily activities include free play, circle time, arts and crafts and outdoor play; such activities rotate according to the children's needs and interests. Children bring their lunch to school and sit down together as an opportunity for socialization. Summer Camps: Our summer school with weekly themes offers wonderful opportunities for children to learn Spanish inside and outside the classroom. Cometa Playschool is a licensed MusikGarten studio.
