Schedule & Programs

Wee Friends has been a part of the community for over 37 years. Small classes allow for individual attention from our certified and highly experienced staff members. Our curriculum provides hands-on experiences that center on the development of the whole child – socially, emotionally, cognitively and physically. Wee Friends is located in a charming historic building with a spacious and park-like playground. Specialists in the areas of music, library, gymnastics and yoga enhance the daily schedule. The “Wee Friends Feeling” that permeates the air is created by the bond that exists between our staff, our “Wee” friends and their families.

​Nursery (3-Year Old Programs) 

We offer four different programs for our Nursery “Wee Friends”.  We offer a mini day from 9:00-2:30, or full day 9:00-4:00. If you peek into our three-year old rooms, you would see colorful stations designed to provide rich experiences that draw on each child's abilities and interests and simultaneously encourage new learning and curiosity.  The hands-on philosophy combined with the integrated curriculum fosters independent thinking while stimulating problem-solving abilities.  While all of this is going on, our Wee Friends are learning self-direction, cooperation, and sharing. At age three we strongly encourage logical thinking and using our words to communicate. Through exciting thematic units, our three year olds learn age appropriate skills and concepts.  In addition, all of our nursery classes participate in our music, movement, library, gym and yoga programs with our specialists.
