Programs
Every age. Every stage. Play-based learning that grows with your child.
EnrichME (Infant)
Our infant program is the start of your child's journey with EmpowerME. With small class sizes and a low student/teacher ratio, nurturing caregivers support the whole child. This classroom serves infants aged 3–24 months, Monday through Friday. Young infants are fed and sleep on their own schedule; as they grow into solid foods, eating and nap times gradually shift toward the group schedule. Each infant is nurtured in accordance with their Individual Needs & Services Plan, with enriched environments through new materials and interactions with caregivers and friends. A child may move to the next classroom when they are at least 18 months old AND able to walk AND verbally communicate yes/no and follow instructions.
EducateME (Pre-K)
Our EducateME program is a preschool/Pre-K classroom that serves students 36 months through entry to first grade who have met the assessment standards and are ready to be educated in a more academic environment. In this classroom, we extend learning from recognition and memorization to comprehension, while also focusing on Kindergarten readiness.
EncourageME (Toddler)
Our EncourageME program serves toddlers aged 18-36 months. In this classroom, we encourage group participation and begin to expose our children to a structured schedule and focused learning time that introduces name recognition, letters, shapes, colors, numbers and values, while they also learn through play. A child may move to the next classroom when they are at least 24 months of age AND potty training AND able work within a group, follow a schedule and successfully participate in learning time.
EngageME (School-Age)
We're open on all the days your school is closed! We accept up to up to 28 school-aged students on pre-scheduled dates of school closures. Contact our office for a list of dates for the current school year. Care is offered for a maximum of 9 hours between 7:30am- 5:45pm
EmpowerME (Preschool)
Our EmpowerME classroom serves children 24 months through entry to Kindergarten, building a solid foundation through extended learning time that covers names, letters, shapes, colors, numbers, and values. Children learn through play within a structured daily schedule. A child may move to the next classroom when they are at least 36 months of age AND fully potty trained AND meet at least 50% of our assessment standards (based on California Preschool Learning Foundations) AND demonstrate readiness for a more academic environment.

"Without EmpowerME's affordable program, I truly don't know how I would have maintained my job. My daughter has blossomed here — finding a best friend, taking pride in being a helper to younger children, and falling in love with the way local organizations get involved to teach kids about the world around them. The staff treats every child with genuine care and respect, giving me total peace of mind while I'm at work."

"My little one looks forward to going to her 'new school' every day. The teachers give their all — making sure every child is loved, cared for, and taught not just academically but life skills too. They even helped with potty training, working right alongside me and never giving up. I am so grateful for this safe, caring, fun learning environment."
— L. Castro, EmpowerME Arden Parent
