Frequently Asked Questions
Book a Complimentary ConsultationIs it too early to start if my child is under 1 year old?
Starting early is a smart move. Building strong habits and a nurturing environment from infancy lays the foundation for language, social, and emotional development. Top private schools often look for families with long-term educational vision.
How is what you offer different from a typical parent-child class or daycare?
Our program combines parenting coaching and admissions planning. Unlike daycare or playgroups, we focus on long-term development goals and school readiness, offering structured support based on your child’s age and future aspirations.
We don’t have a specific school in mind yet, can we still join?
Absolutely. We guide families to understand private school options, clarify educational goals, and create a step-by-step admissions roadmap based on your values and your child’s unique strengths.
If we enroll KEY’s LaunchPad preschool later, do we still need this program?
Yes. This program lays the foundation for LaunchPad and beyond, helping families establish parenting routines and developmental readiness so children can thrive once they enter preschool.
