A real curriculum, built by professional educators, that nurtures the whole child and sends them to kindergarten curious, confident, and ready.
At Magic Hours, we believe children learn best by doing. Our days are full of hands-on play, but every activity has a purpose behind it. We're a preschool, not just a daycare, with an intentional, age-appropriate program designed to grow the whole child.
Our System Four approach guides everything we do, developing children socially, emotionally, physically, and academically, all at once, because that's how young children actually learn and grow.
Four connected areas of growth, woven into everything we do, every single day.
Naming feelings, self-regulation, empathy, and real relationships.
Movement-based learning that builds body confidence and control.
Early literacy, numbers, problem-solving, and a genuine love of learning, the foundation for kindergarten.
Every day at Magic Hours touches eight areas of learning that build a strong foundation for elementary school.
Stories, letters, vocabulary, and early reading.
Counting, patterns, shapes, and problem-solving.
Curiosity, nature, and hands-on exploration.
Painting, crafts, and open-ended making.
Songs, rhythm, dance, and joyful motion.
Sharing, friendship, and understanding feelings.
Fine and gross motor skills through active play.
Self-help skills and confident everyday independence.
A gentle, predictable rhythm that balances learning, play, rest, and plenty of fresh air.
Every day looks a little different, since age groups sometimes combine and activities move around. This is a general feel for how the day flows.
I love and trust the staff at Magic Hours. I worry more than the average person, and when I drop my daughter off for the day, I know she is in good hands. I highly recommend this place.
Being in the education field made my choice for daycare very meticulous. My son has attended for almost 2 years and it's been an excellent experience. The teachers were patient and kind, and he's now fluent in English and loves Magic Hours.
Our family was with Magic Hours for three years. They offer a wonderful program and the Directors are very connected with the families and children. The site is small enough that each teacher knows your child when you walk in the door.
The best way to understand how we teach is to visit. Tour our classrooms, meet our teachers, and watch the learning happen.
