La Maison des Enfants is a French Immersion preschool and kindergarten program which includes two classrooms. All instruction is given in French and children are divided in groups according to their age. We maintain small group sizes to achieve the best quality of education.

The curriculum is inspired by the world-renowned French Ministry of Education. Our education emphasizes fun, respect, good manners, arts, music, physical exercise, and good food.

All children must be toilet-trained prior to attending.

Preschool and Kindergarten activities include:

French language
Stories
Songs
Writing
Math
Science
Cooking
Painting
Drawing
Dance
Physical Exercise
