The same curriculum, in every classroom
Every ABC Great Beginnings preschool and pre-K class, at every one of our centers, follows the same research-based, whole-child curriculum. Here is what your child learns.
We grow the whole child
💬 Communication
Vocabulary, storytelling, and our name-first path into early reading.
🤸 Gross Motor
Movement, yoga, and active play that builds strong, confident bodies.
✏️ Fine Motor
Art, tracing, and hands-on work that prepares little hands to write.
🔍 Problem Solving
Real STEM challenges: plan it, build it, test it, make it better.
🤝 Social & Emotional
We teach social-emotional skills with the Kimochis® program, so children learn to name feelings and get along.
🎨 Creativity & the Arts
Open-ended art, music, and imaginative play woven through every monthly theme.
A full school year of learning, wonder, and play
Every month brings a new theme packed with discovery, books, songs, art, and science.
Reading starts with their name
We begin with the letters in each child's own name, then build to the full alphabet and letter sounds.
Little scientists & engineers
Ramps, gardens, recycling, simple machines. Children predict, build, and test real ideas.
Kind, confident kids
Daily morning meetings, cooperative play, and social-emotional learning build confidence for kindergarten.
Teach. Measure. Show.
We grow the whole child, with kindergarten readiness as the focus, and we measure it on the Pre-Kindergarten Entry and Exit Profile (PEEP) so growth is something you can see.
Teach
A full year of themed, play-based learning with a name-first path into letters and sounds.
Measure
Readiness measured on the PEEP profile at the start and the end of the year.
Show
A simple, parent-friendly snapshot of your child's growth each season.
A special part-time program at our Saratoga Springs location
The preschool you know, now part-time and flexible
Our program, curriculum, and teachers are the same trusted ABC Great Beginnings. What is new is the flexibility: a true part-time schedule of just 2 or 3 mornings a week at a simple monthly price, with pay-as-you-go wrap-around care whenever you need a longer day. We are piloting it here in Saratoga Springs first. Classes begin Monday, August 31, 2026.
Part-time preschool that fits your week
Mornings, not all day
Drop off after the morning rush, pick up by lunch. A meaningful preschool experience that leaves the afternoon open.
Pick your days
Two days (Tue & Thu) or three days (Mon, Wed & Fri). Choose the rhythm that fits your week.
Flexibility when you need it
Add wrap-around care by the hour, and full-day care is right here in the same building when your family is ready.
Simple pricing. Pick your mornings.

A typical morning
The preschool program runs 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., with a simple, predictable rhythm. Families have a 15-minute drop-off and pick-up window at each end, so arrivals and goodbyes are never rushed.
In between, children enjoy learning time, outdoor recess, and lunch together before pick-up.
Inside our Saratoga Springs center
More than the typical morning preschool
Many part-time preschools run out of a home, a church basement, or a single room. Ours runs inside a full, licensed early-learning center.
