My Caregiver & Me Classes FAQs
We offer two caregiver-and-child experiences:
• Early Explorers & Me
• Little Explorers Lab
All Early Explorers programs require active and engaged adult participation.
World Explorers programs are globally inspired, drawing from best practices in early childhood education from around the world. Our approach centers play, connection, movement, creativity, and relationship-based learning.
Yes. World Explorers continues to offer preschool for children ages 2–4 including summer and school break camps.
Early Explorers & Me and Little Explorers Lab are caregiver-and-child experiences, intentionally designed to support shared learning, connection, and early development. While these classes are not drop-off, they complement our existing drop-off programs rather than replace them.
Families interested in drop-off options are encouraged to explore our full program offerings or reach out for guidance in choosing the best fit.
Early Explorers & Me is a 90-minute caregiver-and-child class designed to strengthen connection while supporting early literacy, social-emotional development, and joyful learning. Each class follows a gentle, predictable rhythm that includes facilitated activities, movement, exploration, and shared play. Active caregiver participation is required.
Little Explorers Lab is a 60-minute open-ended play experience. Children explore thoughtfully prepared learning areas, sensory materials, and play spaces at their own pace. A staff member supports the environment, while caregivers actively engage alongside their child. The experience is child-led and rooted in exploration.
Caregivers act as Active Learning Partners, supporting children through:
• Modeling engagement: Participating in songs, movement, and activities
• Bridging to learning: Comforting, redirecting, and supporting transitions
• Shared experience: Actively engaging alongside the child to maximize developmental benefits
The value of the program is rooted in shared participation, not passive observation.
Caregivers are actively involved throughout the session and are expected to:
• Get on the floor and engage in play
• Follow the child’s lead and ask open-ended questions
• Help children execute ideas they cannot yet manage independently
• Model focus and presence (cell phones put away)
• Support safe, creative use of materials
