We have created an educational Petite Elite program based on the needs of children. We offer a developmentally appropriate setting and curriculum to encourage a positive, unique learning experience. A safe, nurturing, structured environment is provided while children learn the readiness skills needed for kindergarten. A balance of teacher-directed and child-directed activities by degreed teachers, as well as certified swimming, fitness & tennis instructors. We believe an emphasis on self-esteem is important and accomplished through enthusiasm, positive reinforcement and redirection. Each child learns at their own pace. We believe parent communication is key to ensuring each child's goals are accurately defined. Age appropriate programs are designed exclusively for Elite children, non-members are also welcome. Children must meet birth date requirements, but need not be potty trained to enroll. Start your child's educational journey with Petite Elite and have your child come grow with us today!
