The Learning Sea is focused on teaching children to become confident, independent, and creative. Through our various services, the Learning Sea, LLC strives to provide services to children 1-18 years of age. Our programs are tailored to their individual strengths and challenges, all while encouraging skills that they can take with them as they flourish. Speech Pathology Services Learning Sea, LLC uses the most advanced evidence-based methods to teach communication skills. Research has consistently shown that children learn best in their natural environment. The Learning Sea views each child as unique and uses their individual strengths and challenges to guide them and help them through the speech therapy journey. School of Fish Early Learning Pods Research has shown that early learning years are some of the most crucial years in a child's development. Preschools often provide opportunities for the development of language, social skills, emotional awareness skills, and pre-academic skills. However, now that many centers have decided to switch to remote learning, parents are now looking to form "pods", "micro schools", or "bubbles". Neighbors, family members, and friends with children are able to form their own "pods" but often need a professional to facilitate the classes. School of Fish Early Learning Pods aims to provide small (2-5 children) early learning classes within the home. These small classes allow for more individual attention with a strong emphasis on language development. All classes will be taught by a qualified speech language pathologist. Language Through Art Language Through Art is a home-based group (2 to 5 children) class that is tailored to each individual child while simultaneously delivered in the group setting. This allows for more personalized attention to your child's wants and needs, while also working on important social skills such as turn-taking, sharing, attention, and concentration. Children will be encouraged to tap into their creativity as they explore arts, crafts, and sensory play as they learn social and language skills. Independent Kids Independent Kids is a home-based program designed to teach children routines, activities of daily living, and the importance of structure throughout their day. With a strong emphasis on using visual schedules, reward-based systems, and consistent practice, Independent Kids focuses on getting your children to becoming more self-reliant and confident.

Preschool
Grace Academy’s Early Childhood Program provides a safe, high-quality learning environment that enables every child to excel and grow in grace. Our Academy runs 8:45am-11:15am with optional lunch until 12:00pm. We also offer enrichment opportunities for children 4+ until 1:45pm every day. We do not offer daycare services. We believe children learn best through play which fosters exploration and discovery. To that end, we provide a nurturing learning environment which promotes, supports, and honors discovery and exploration through play. We provide a range of opportunities to explore, imagine, investigate, and engage in purposeful and meaningful experiences. We understand that through play, a child actively poses problems, explores solutions, and develops understanding of real world concepts. We strive to create meaningful learning opportunities to support the social/emotional, language, cognitive, physical, and spiritual development of each child.

I've been doing in home childcare for a little over 16 years now and I am licensed through the state. Prior to my daycare career I was a teacher until I became a Mom! I was also the head of an after-school program for a local elementary school. I've worked in daycare, summer camps, summer school, basically any job that involves children. I have my degree with a certification in early childhood education. I started babysitting out of my home 16 years ago and love it. I've teamed up with my sister who is also a stay at home mom and comes to my house to help me out or to fill in for me. Teaming up with my sister has really worked out nice because she's my back up so you wouldn't ever have to worry about your sitter calling off with the two of us! We would treat your child as if he/she were our own. As a mother I know how hard it is to find childcare I've been there, especially trusting someone off the internet. Rest assure being a teacher in a public school I've been fingerprinted, background checked, and have a great reputation from my long term families I sit for! I charge $50/day for full time and $60/day for part time (2 or 3 days). I live in Hickory Hills very close to 294 & 55. Please email me if you'd like more information, I'd love to meet you and your little one:) Thanks

FAQs for finding preschools near you in Palos Park, IL

There are two main types of preschool programs near you in Palos Park, IL. The first is a full-time program that usually works best for parents working full-time shifts, and the second is a part-time preschool where your child would attend only two to three days per week and typically choose between a morning and afternoon shift. A part-time preschool can be a great option if you want to ease the transition of this new learning experience for your child! You can also check your options in Palos Park, IL for traditional preschool centers, or private home-based preschools.

When you begin looking for preschools near me in Palos Park, IL, consider your priorities and ask administrators about their philosophies and approach to common child care issues or occurances. You may also want to ask about the ratio of learning time to supervised play time so you can get a good sense of whether you believe your child's needs will be met. From there, ask about what a typical day consists of, what the safety protocols are and how discipline will be handled. Also, make sure to check directly with the preschool for information about their local licensing and credentials in Palos Park, IL.

When looking for a preschool near you in Palos Park, IL on Care.com, you'll be able to review preschools by distance from you ZIP code. From there, you can compare between preschool programs by traditional facility-based preschools and private, in-home preschools.
