The J LA Early Childhood Center

The J LA Preschool recognizes the significant role it can play in establishing a framework through which Jewish experiences can be integrated into an enriching, child-centered, play and art-based preschool curriculum. We believe children are natural learners, soaking up the world around them like sponges. We share the image of children as being creative, resourceful, powerful, and capable human beings. Our learning environment invites their curiosity and the excitement of discovery in the areas of art, science, math, dramatic play, large and small motor activities, enhanced language development, and music. We encourage children to explore, touch, and experience the world around them.
We emphasis on the whole child and respect that all children learn in different ways. Our integrated approach pays attention to the young child’s physical skill development, self-expression, socialization, coping strategies, cognitive learning, as well as his or her emotional adjustment and well-being. You won’t see perfect crafts or any emphasis on the finished product. Learning happens during the struggle, frustration, and truly delightful discoveries throughout the day.
