What's Included in This Service

When you enroll your child in our preschool program, they'll participate in a structured curriculum that covers early literacy, counting, pattern recognition, and problem-solving. Mornings begin with circle time, followed by small group activities that rotate through reading, writing practice, math games, and creative arts. Your child will also spend time in supervised outdoor play, building physical coordination and social skills in Sylmar's sunny climate.

Sandy Child Care employs trained educators who understand how young children learn and develop. Our classrooms include hands-on materials such as building blocks, letter manipulatives, sensory bins, and age-appropriate books. Preschoolers engage in activities that teach sharing, following directions, and working cooperatively with peers.

We also offer flexible scheduling options for families who need full-day or half-day preschool programs. Our preschool Sylmar curriculum includes snack time, rest periods, and daily routines that help children feel secure and ready to learn. Parents receive regular updates about their child's progress, including milestones reached in literacy, math, and social-emotional development.
