Nurturing Every Stage of Childhood in Aurora
Welcome to Global Village Preschool in Aurora, where we believe every child’s journey is unique and filled with limitless potential. We are not just a building; we are a community, a partner to parents, and a second home for your child. As one of Aurora’s trusted local daycare providers, we are deeply committed to providing a nurturing, stimulating, and safe environment that fosters a lifelong love of learning.
Our comprehensive programs are designed to support the whole child, from their first sensory explorations as infants to their complex problem-solving as school-agers. We blend play-based discovery with intentional curriculum to create a rich foundation for early education and development. Explore our age-specific programs below to find the perfect fit for your family.
Infant Daycare Program (Ages 6 weeks - 12 months)
Our infant classrooms are a world of gentle care and sensory discovery. We understand that a child’s first experiences are crucial for building trust and a sense of security. Our dedicated caregivers practice responsive caregiving, meaning they are attuned to your baby’s individual needs and cues. We maintain low infant-to-teacher ratios to ensure abundant one-on-one interaction, from cuddles and coos to story time and tummy time.
This specialized daycare program focuses on stimulating cognitive and motor development through safe, age-appropriate toys, music, and sensory activities. We work closely with you to mirror your home routines for feeding and sleeping, providing a seamless and comforting transition for both you and your baby.
Toddler Program (Ages 1 - 2 years)
Toddlerhood is a burst of energy, curiosity, and burgeoning independence! Our toddler program is designed to channel that amazing energy into productive play and exploration. The classroom is a “yes” environment, carefully arranged to encourage self-directed discovery while ensuring safety.
We focus on key developmental milestones, including significant language acquisition, gross motor skills (climbing, running, dancing), and fine motor control (stacking, drawing, puzzles). Our curriculum introduces early social-emotional learning, as toddlers begin to navigate concepts like sharing and playing alongside peers. We also provide patient and positive support as they begin their potty-training journey.
Preschool Program (Ages 3 - 4 years)
This is where the foundation for early childhood learning truly takes shape. Our preschool program is a vibrant, dynamic environment where children learn through imaginative play, hands-on projects, and guided activities. We introduce foundational concepts in literacy and numeracy, but we do it in a way that feels like fun, not work.
Children in our program develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills as they explore science centers, express themselves through art, and build elaborate structures in the block area. We focus heavily on social development, guiding children in cooperation, conflict resolution, and empathy. Our goal for preschool learning in Aurora is to nurture curiosity and build the confidence your child needs to see themselves as a capable and successful learner.
Pre-K Program (Ages 4 - 5 years)
Our Pre-K program is specifically designed to ensure your child is more than ready for Kindergarten. We build upon the foundations of preschool with a more structured curriculum that sharpens the academic and social skills needed for the transition to elementary school. Through engaging, project-based learning, children learn to ask questions, work collaboratively, and follow multi-step directions. We foster independence and self-help skills, empowering Pre-K students to enter Kindergarten as confident, inquisitive, and well-prepared leaders.
School-Age Program (Ages 5 - 12 years)
Our commitment to your family doesn’t end when the school bell rings. Our school-age daycare program provides a safe, fun, and constructive environment for before- and after-school care, as well as on school breaks and during the summer.
