Infants

We teach in French or English, we give bilingual lessons – Even though primarily, the native tongue of every Kinder Bubble child is English!

Cooperative play is something we truly value. But it has to be learned, as well as appeal to our social instincts… The best way to achieve this is by copying what we see. Therefore, our nursery teachers and educators model play and cooperate whenever they can, so the kids get a sense of what it looks like. Taking turns, acting gently, and speaking kindly: all these are examples of positive reinforcement. Soon enough, the play will start to diffuse social tension as a result.

We begin with short separation times, as children need to have faith that their caregiver will return. This builds trust and mutual understanding. Once these brief periods become the norm, we extend the length of separation. A comforter from home often helps, something like a blanket, toy or teddy bear. It’s normal for a child to cry during their initial state at kindergarten of semi-independence. Please remember that it’s a natural, healthy response to the love you’ve given them so far… For transitions and promotions, too, we create a plan that’s tailored to their personality traits.

You may drop your child off in the school driveway as early as 7:30 am, 20 minutes before school. Students meet and line up on the compound before school. Supervision is provided on the school compound every morning.

We recommend that parents walk their child or children to the school compound for at least the first few days of school. Park on the street or in the lot at 21 Quince Street and walk your child into the school compound playground.

Preschool

It is strongly encouraged that all children starting in Preschool, except for those entering the Toddler program, be potty-trained. However, it is not required.

At Kinder Bubble, only children who stay for Creative Afternoons will have a rest period after lunch. At the preschool, students have a rest time after lunch, which often includes a read-aloud story time.

Parents can access information instantly about their child(ren)’s classroom activities, schedule, and plans by calling which also provides access to family contact information and is where parents can update emergency contacts or the list of individuals allowed to pick up their child(ren).
