Philosophy

Tiny Tots Preschool is a licensed, non-profit, activity oriented program that allows students to develop socially, emotionally, and intellectually at their own rates.  Our emphasis is on the individual needs of each child in our program.  Activities are designed to develop and improve fine and gross motor skills, language arts, mathematics, and social and emotional development.

Our program focuses on helping students develop skills that create a solid academic foundation, which they can build upon throughout their academic careers.  We take pride in giving our students the confidence to enthusiastically take on new tasks and challenges that will help them excel in school and in life.

History

In September 1974, the Longmeadow Congregational Church opened their doors to the community by starting a program for 3 to 5 year old children to gather and broaden their learning and group cooperation skills through play.  In 1975, Tiny Tots expanded from a two day program to three, with a combined class of 3 to 5 year old children.  In 1985, recognizing the developmental learning differences between the age groups, the preschool was divided into two separate classes.  The three year olds began meeting two days a week, and the four year olds continued meeting three days a week.  In 1988, Tiny Tots added an afternoon kindergarten program to address the needs of this special age group.
