About Cadence Academy’s Taylor Mill Preschool
Cadence Academy’s Taylor Mill Preschool and Daycare (formerly Abby’s Child Enrichment Centers) is a licensed, full-service, premium early childhood education facility focusing on the success and nurturing of each child.
We incorporate the Reggio Emilia Educational Approach which encourages children to think on their own. The Reggio Emilia Curriculum ensures the children’s work dominates the classroom rather than commercial art or designs, all the children have potential, and it should be cultivated. Group project work is encouraged to build social-emotional skills and allows children to learn from each other/borrow each other’s knowledge. Teachers can pose a question to the group to encourage problem-solving, and children are given time to make connections and form ideas.
The environment is calm and simple, has natural items, and incorporates the use of light. The Reggio Emilia approach supports social, social-communication, cognitive, fine motor, and gross motor skills. Our school is so much more than a Taylor Mill daycare.
Our Programs
Infants
Our goal is to provide a warm, secure, loving, and nurturing environment for all babies while in our care. Daily activities are designed specifically to meet your baby’s needs and abilities. Routine caregiving activities, such as feeding and diapering, are used as opportunities for language interactions and for nurturing a one-on-one relationship with the teacher. Our curriculum is based primarily on play. As infants play with toys, observe the world around them, listen to sounds, and interact with caring adults, they are learning. The development of play skills can be significantly enhanced by the quality of the teachers’ interactions and the availability of play materials. Infants learn through spontaneous play in which they build an understanding of the world in their terms.
Infancy to Preschool
From infancy to preschool, children learn best when learning is engaging. Throughout our programs, teachers work with children on language and literacy skills, beginning letter/sound recognition and identification, pre-math and pre-science skills as well as incorporating a whole language approach to learning. We foster a love for reading as well as providing opportunities to engage in counting, sorting and categorizing through activities that are stimulating and fun. Additionally, we encourage social skills like cooperation and respect at our Taylor Mill preschool.
Pre-K
Our Pre-Kindergarten curriculum allows children to participate in small groups while interacting with other children in activities, projects, and experiments. Exposure to reading occurs daily by engaging children in letter identification which progresses to letter sounds, and finally how sounds and letters combine to form words. Additionally, children will be exposed to addition and subtraction and more acute observational and analytical skills.
Pre-K classrooms at Cadence Academy’s Taylor Mill Preschool are arranged with several interest areas/learning centers. Each area provides children with new challenges and learning opportunities. Teachers periodically change the interest areas in order to provide new experiences, challenge the children’s abilities, and respond to their growing interests. We have created a program that encourages both education and enrichment for the individual child. With qualified teachers who speak with the children and ask questions to promote thinking and language development, children can learn and grow at their own pace.
Before and After School
We provide before-school care where children are able to enjoy their breakfast prior to going to school, and we also provide after-school care with bus services and/or private transportation to and from local schools. The School Age Program is designed to enhance problem-solving skills and social skills as well as to strengthen the children’s independence and individuality. Our routine is structured and consistent but is not rigid. Homework club is offered to give children (and parents) a head start on completing homework for the evening. Additionally, children are provided time to enjoy their afternoon snack.
