Our Sarasota Preschool Programs

Our Sarasota preschool offers the following programs for children ages two through five years:

Bridge Session- This program allows Threes and Pre-students to join us for the morning session, stay with us for lunch, and then join our afternoon session to continue their learnings for an entire school day.

All our programs are half-day sessions that run for 10 months of the year. We also offer our Summer Camp program for the remaining two months. This half-day program is a great way for children to continue their learning experience during the warmer months, yet these sessions are by no means boring! Children will participate in themed activities and outdoor games that will be so much fun, they’ll have no idea they are learning. Contact our Sarasota preschool to learn more about this summer’s themes.

Our Hybrid Curriculum

To ensure the best outcomes, teachers need to provide a learning environment that is welcoming for all. Ivybrook Academy Sarasota recognizes that every student learns differently and will have various strengths and challenges. That’s why our curriculum pulls from three popular, innovative approaches: Reggio Emilia, Montessori, and The Theory of Multiple Intelligences. Children will be encouraged to take the lead in their learning and explore the world around them, and their uniqueness and individuality will be celebrated.

Choosing a Private Preschool in Sarasota

One of the biggest choices as a parent is finding the best early childhood education. At Ivybrook Academy Sarasota, we never take a one-size-fits-all approach to your child’s education and instead cater our curriculum to their needs. Every child is different, and we believe that these differences should be celebrated. They also have a natural curiosity for the world around them, so we provide them with the tools and opportunity to make discoveries both inside and outside the classroom.

There are added benefits to choosing a private preschool as well. At Ivybrook Academy, we offer smaller class sizes, allowing for more individualized attention and fostering a nurturing environment where each child's unique needs and abilities can be catered to. Our educators are highly qualified and experienced in early childhood development, ensuring that your child receives a strong academic and social foundation. 

We also foster a supportive network of families who share a commitment to their child's success; the strong sense of community and parental involvement found in our private preschool enhances children’s educational experience!
