Military Childcare near Parrish, FL

Infants

Families love the balance of nurturing care and milestone development in this program. In a warm, safe, stimulating classroom, children have a primary caregiver to attend to their needs. Plus, our exclusive, milestone-focused curriculum, Learn from the Start™, was developed by our educational experts to focus on key developmental milestones specific to infants. We emphasize each child’s development, rather than specific age, because all children grow and learn at their own pace, and in their own unique way. We’re also here when you need us. Ask your school about flexible enrollment options to fit your family’s schedule.

Pre-K

Our VPK/Pre-K program is is centered on interdisciplinary projects that create engaging learning experiences through hands on, open- ended explorations. This state-funded program is provided at no cost to families, with optional extended hours of care available for an additional cost beyond the standard VPK hours. Within this framework, children are prompted to engage in small peer groups, fostering the exploration, design, and presentation of their projects. Collaboration and communication become the cornerstones of all activities. This approach encourages learners to formulate hypotheses, investigate processes, and draw conclusions, empowering them to articulate and defend ideas, building confidence in their ability to formulate individual opinions and become the authors of their own learning journeys. Through these interdisciplinary projects, children engage in foundational learning skills such as math, science, social studies, and language arts in meaningful ways.

Preschool

Building upon the foundations laid in the Nido program, Parrish Country Day’s preschool curriculum embraces children’s expanding vocabulary and emerging cognitive abilities. At this stage, collaboration and communication emerge as central pillars of the learning experience, fostering intellectual curiosity and social engagement. Children participate in small peer groups to research, design, and execute projects, refining their ability to formulate hypotheses, conduct investigations, analyze findings, and draw meaningful conclusions. Through this process, students develop confidence in articulating their ideas, cultivating a sense of ownership over their learning and laying the groundwork for a lifetime of inquiry and discovery.
