Pre-K Program
The mission of the Pre-Kindergarten program at The Nest is to provide quality childhood experiences in a loving Christian environment, based on principles of child development and understanding of how three and four-year-olds grow and learn. To us, positive early learning experiences help to prepare children for success in kindergarten and beyond. The Pre-Kindergarten program emphasizes engaging learning experiences for three and four-year-old children.
