Play, Do, Learn Preschool Program
The Play, Do, Learn (PDL) preschool program was founded by a group of parents in 1986. Play, Do, Learn is a non-profit, inclusive preschool bringing children with special needs together with their “typically” developing peers. All children from 15 months through 6 years are welcome to attend. As a model inclusive preschool, our curriculum-based program is designed to meet the unique abilities and learning styles of each child. Our low student-to-teacher ratio ensures that each child receives individual attention and care from highly qualified staff.
Inclusion
At Play, Do, Learn and SRVS Kids, we believe inclusion is “the active participation of every child in every activity.” This means that we educate and involve children with special needs in classrooms and everyday activities with their typically-developing peers.
We offer an equal opportunity to all children, regardless of developmental level and/or medical diagnosis. Children enrolled in our preschool have been diagnosed with a special need or developmental delay ranging from Down syndrome, autism, cerebral palsy, language delays, etc. Our pediatric nurse is available for consultations and trainings as needed for medical issues associated with feeding tubes, food allergies, etc.
Inclusion is important because it fosters the true spirit of friendship. It teaches every child how to be a good friend to others. Numerous studies have shown that children learn best through play and by interacting with their peers. Our Play, Do, Learn program models diversity and compassion and encourages play and friendship.
Scheduling Options
We offer a year-round program with an extended care option. Our school day hours at both locations are 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. for the full day and 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. for the half day program. Early care is offered from 7:45 - 8:30 a.m.
Therapy Sessions
SRVS Kids has a team of pediatric therapists available if you have concerns about your child’s development. If your child is receiving therapy from another agency, those therapists are welcome during the hours of 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Play, Do, Learn. If a child does not take a nap, a therapist is welcome to see the child during nap time 1–2 p.m. Please tell your child’s teacher if and when a therapist is coming to work with your child.
Tuition
Tuition is based on the number of days your child attends the program. When you register for Play, Do, Learn, you will sign a contract with your child’s designated days and the tuition rate. Payment is due each month.
