An experience that is active, educational and creative. It will build self- esteem and social skills in a positive and encouraging environment.

Our Fine Arts Academy is a fun and active program that allows children to develop social skills and talents at a young age. Children participate in dance, yoga, and fitness classes while enjoying drama, art and music lessons. Each week the students will enjoy a theme such as animals, seasons or feelings and will learn alphabet, numbers and letters.

This is not a parented class – you drop off your child for the length of rhe class. Parents will be invited to watch during designated parent viewing weeks. (Viewing dates will be announced for each class.)

Our teachers are trained in child development and know how to deal with separation anxiety. You will be encouraged to say your goodbyes and allow the teachers to take your child to class. If this is your child’s first time in a non-parented setting, it will definitely take time for them to feel secure and comfortable. It is common for children to cry anywhere from 5-20 minutes for the first 4-6 weeks. Our goal is to ensure your child feels safe, confident and inspired and we have outlined our integration policy below.

• First class – Parents are invited to attend the first 15-30 minutes of class. If your child has siblings, they are more than welcome to attend as well. Children feed off their parent’s energy – when the parent is relaxed, the child is more likely to be relaxed. Teachers will lead a 15-30 minute welcome orientation and connect with the parents and collect all personal profiles. This is your opportunity to get to know the teachers and connect with them. After the orientation is complete, parents will be kindly asked to leave and children will explore and interact with one another. The goal is to set your child up for success and build trust and confidence.

• Second class – Parents are welcome to come in the room for the first 5-10 minutes to help their child settle. After 10 minutes we kindly ask that all parents say goodbye to their child and leave the studio. This will allow us to build trust with your child.

• Third class – Parents are welcome to bring the child into the classroom and have free play with their child for 5 minutes.

• Fourth class – Parents say goodbye in the lobby area and teachers bring the students back into the room. If your child cries, it is best to leave them with us so we can redirect and build rapport with them. If your child is still unsettled after 30 minutes, we will call you and provide you with an update. At this time, we can come up with a suitable plan.

Our standard ratio is one instructor or assistant for every 6 children.

All of our teachers have experience working with children ages 2-5. They all possess unique certifications, degrees and diplomas, and are passionate about working with this age group!
