A Day in the Life of Nursery

At Big Time Pre-Prep, we create an ideal environment where children benefit from mixed-age interactions. Our setting caters to ages 2 to 5, allowing younger children to learn from their older peers while older children develop leadership skills and serve as role models. At the same time, we provide dedicated breakout spaces and maintain small staff-to-child ratios to ensure that each child is challenged appropriately according to their age and individual needs.
