ABOUT US
Welcome to La Casa del Sol, a nurturing home care environment that specializes in children from 3 months to 4 years old, where we introduce a second language through our fully Spanish-language school. Our focus on the little ones enables us to offer them a warm and positive introduction to school life, helping them transition smoothly into transitional kindergarten (TK).
La Casa del Sol is unique in its hybrid approach to learning, providing educational experiences both inside and outside the classroom. We believe that children thrive when they can interact with their environment, making them more aware of and caring for our planet. That’s why our curriculum includes visits to beaches, museums, farmers’ markets, parks, and bookstores—immersing them in their community and fostering a deeper connection with it.
At La Casa del Sol, children also enjoy a wide range of classes such as healthy cooking, science, art, theater, dance, music, physical education, and gymnastics. Each class is designed to inspire, engage, and enrich your child’s learning experience.
Operating Hours and Days:
Monday to Friday, from 8:00 AM to 5:30 PM.
We look forward to being a part of your child’s early education and helping them grow into mindful, enthusiastic learners.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
At La Casa del Sol, we create a nurturing environment that promotes the growth and education of each child. We believe that our approach should holistically address all developmental areas, making sure no aspect of growth is left behind. Additionally, we emphasize the importance of allowing children to explore and learn at their own pace in a supportive setting.
Children at La Casa del Sol develop a strong sense of identity and competence, thanks to our dedicated educators who ensure they feel secure and valued. Our educational philosophy is influenced by the Reggio Emilia approach, which champions the idea that safe and respectful relationships with trustworthy adults are fundamental to all learning experiences.
We recognize that each child’s educational journey is unique, and we are committed to accommodating these individual differences to foster a truly inclusive and enriching learning environment.
OUR MISSION
The mission of La Casa del Sol is to foster an awareness in each child of the diverse ways of living and thinking through the rich cultural experiences we offer. We strive to establish a deep connection with every family and child, creating a safe environment that maximizes their personal and educational development.
At La Casa del Sol, our goal is to shape individuals who are sensitive to nature and the world around them, and who interact with others from a place of respect and empathy. We aspire to inspire in each student a genuine appreciation for diversity and a commitment to intercultural understanding.
