School-age Programs

School-age kids are both independent and social, eager for structured learning as well as time to do their own thing. We provide both! Our friendly and flexible before and/or after school program provides time for schoolwork, learning activities, and play. 

We also offer a fun summer program for school-age kids at Merry Moose Childcare and Preschool 3 in Richmond.

Much more than childcare, the goal of our school-age programs is to have a positive influence on your child’s school performance by encouraging a lifelong love of learning and healthy social skills. Teachers are available to help students complete homework and provide fun educational activities that continue to build your child’s independence and self-confidence.
​
Our before and/or after school-age program in Richmond is equipped for children between the ages of 5 and 8.

school-age Curriculum

The Merry Moose school-age curriculum is created to meet the unique needs of each child. We make learning fun, with a focus on strengthening their literacy, math, science, and social-emotional skills. Parent conferences are held twice a year to share formal feedback with families. 
​

Children learn at different rates and in different ways, and we encourage the process versus praise the result. Our school-age program is well-balanced, with time to complete homework, participate in both independent and teacher-led activities, and socialize with peers. Weather permitting, your child will go outside each day for free play and some structured activities.
