Empowering children to fly higher for their dreams At BLC, we are more than just educators. We are on a mission to help young minds develop confidence in life, by providing quality care in a nurturing environment. Our programs give children a solid foundation to build on, encouraging their development into assertive, independent, and compassionate individuals. Through bilingual teaching in both English and Spanish, our dedicated educators will help to expand your child’s worldview and promote much-needed exposure to the diversity of cultures. All-round development of your little one Our dedicated teachers conduct daily observations to learn more about each learner and personalize their teaching styles according to each child’s needs. We incorporate musical activities, show and tell, storytelling, plays, dancing, free play, and other activities to help children develop their expression and a love for learning as they transition to a school setting. At BLC, we ensure that your child finds our learning environments comfortable and always feels at home. Our smaller learning groups and one-on-one support provide a sense of extended family, giving our students a safe space to develop their natural social skills with a spirit of collaboration.

All of our programs at First3 are created to provide the best childcare and individualized early learning experiences for your child regardless of their age, stage of development, or even the time of year!

Infant Class:

Finding the right type of infant care can be an emotional and overwhelming challenge. Babies depend on adults for nurturing and support, and this time is critical to developing trust and security.Our main goal is to help infants develop into authentic individuals who feel secure, appreciated and self-sufficientSelf-discovery and spontaneous play are important for infants, as is establishing a daily routine. Caregivers support the infant’s cues, and develop appropriate routines and habits based on their needs. Building relationships and communicating with the infant’s parents also plays a critical role in providing a high-quality infant care experience. Our environment is designed to make babies feel safe, secure, and love.

Toddlers Class:

Children at this stage of their development are extremely energetic. Because of their enthusiasm and cheerful spirit, caregivers provide fun and creative programs through learning centers, self directed play, small groups and circle time. Language skills, communication skills, following directions, and basic concepts are taught as well. To make sure the toddlers’ high-spirited energy are met, teachers offer a lot of music activities and outdoor plays.

PreSchool:

We provide high quality child care and early childhood education, in an environment where learning is child’s play. Daily schedule consists of curriculum work time, phonetics, sensory, large and small motor skill activities, structured and free playtime, arts and crafts, music, story time, cultural activities, nutrition education, good personal hygiene skills and manners, etc. Most of our preschoolers know basic Spanish as the point. Children in our program do very well in kindergarten. They have mastered the important skills needed to navigate the more advanced world of school.

Before and after school:

Filling the child care gap in school-aged children is challenging for any parent. After school programs help bridge this gap by offering a safe and fun place for children while their parents finish the work day. Improving academic achievement is very important for us. Students can use their time catching up on school assignments, or bonus work and other special projects.
