Pura Vida Pre-school is a licensed family child care program in Jamaica Plain, specializing in the care and education of preschoolers, 2 years 9 months to age 5. Our goal is to create a nurturing environment focused on teaching Spanish as a second language. Pura Vida Pre-school uses a unique classroom management system that promotes self regulation and independent learning amongst students in the classroom centers. We are a family of friends, both male and female, coming together to create a child-centered program with age appropriate curriculum enriched with theatre, movement and art experiences. We also believe in using Sign Language as a bridge between languages and to encourage communication skills. Our program embraces the Costa Rican “pura vida” cultural vibe of appreciating the small experiences and living in the moment as all children seem to do naturally as they explore the world.
