USES’s Early Childhood Education (ECE) program is focused on preparing children to become confident, successful learners. Our teachers and group leaders create nurturing and warm spaces to support the development of each child’s self-esteem and growth. All ECE classrooms provide rich learning environments where children can flourish socially, emotionally, and intellectually.

We aim to create developmentally appropriate lessons to ensure that each child’s individual and developmental needs are met. Art and science are frequently integrated in each of our classrooms through STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math).

We believe that art is a powerful tool for literacy and language development, critical thinking as well as reasoning and emotional regulation skills.
Our program is divided into three age groups:
