Our early childhood education program offers classes for children ages six weeks through twelve years in our Infant, Toddlers, Two's, Early Preschool, Preschool, Pre-K, Junior Kindergarten, Before and After School programs. We also offer a Preschool/Pre-K Select 3-hour program (9:15am-12:15pm) for children 3.5-4.5 years old which follows the Plainfield District 202 Holiday Calendar.

The talented staff members at our school have many years of experience in the field and partake in various training opportunities throughout the year including CPR & First Aid, to maintain their DCFS required annual training. Each set of classroom teachers puts their special flair into their childcare curriculum which is based on High Scope philosophy!
