Preschool Enrollment at Mind and Body Kids

Mind and Body Kids offers a preschool program that enrolls children starting from 2 years old (as of the beginning of our school year) until they are ready for kindergarten. The enrollment process for our program is exclusively based on a 5-day week, as part-time options would not be conducive to our learning environment.  

Pricing for our preschool program varies depending on the frequency and method of payment. We also provide discounts for those employed by the police department and fire department, educators, families with multiple children enrolled, and active or retired military families.  

We highly recommend scheduling a tour of our facility, allowing you and your child(ren) to explore and learn more about the program. Please note that enrollment packages are only provided to new families after touring the facility.

Mind and Body Kids follows a school year that spans from approximately August 1st to July 31st each year. Our preschool program for Pre-K and Kindergarten concludes on the Friday before Memorial Day.  

The school year features two distinct programs. The first is the academic year, which runs from the start of the school year until the Friday before Memorial Day. Following that, we offer a summer theme that maintains an academic focus while incorporating summer-based activities like water play, making the enrollment process seamless for families.

During the school year, Mind and Body Kids offers an open enrollment process based on availability in our classrooms. If a classroom reaches full enrollment, a waitlist will be initiated for families that submit their enrollment paperwork to the center. Once a spot becomes available, the enrollment fee must be paid within 48 hours to secure the spot; otherwise, the next family on the waitlist will be offered the open spot. Enrollment operates on a first-come, first-served basis. For information on the current waitlist status, please call the center.

We are currently enrolling for the 2026-27 school years, with availability for an immediate start in our preschool program. The classrooms are organized based on the age of your child as of September 1st of our school year. This structure ensures that children in each classroom are generally within 6 months of age of each other. Once enrolled in a classroom, your child will remain with their peers for the entire school year and will have the same two teachers throughout the year as well.

Our preschool classrooms are as follows (age is determined by the child's age on September 1st of the school year):

Caterpillars (children 2 years old with birthdays between 3/1 and 8/31) - Max. 16 children enrolled*

Frogs (children 2 years old with birthdays between 9/1 and 2/28) - Max. 16 children enrolled

Bumblebees (children 3 years old with birthdays between 3/1 and 8/31) - Max. 18 children enrolled

Butterflies (children 3 years old with birthdays between 9/1 and 2/28) - Maximum 18 children enrolled

Fireflies Pre-K (children 4 years old with birthdays between 3/1 and 8/31) - Max. 20 children enrolled

Ladybugs Pre-K (children 4 years old with birthdays between 9/1 and 2/28) - Max. 20 children enrolled

* Based on availability, children that turn 2 after the start of our school year may be enrolled in the Caterpillar classroom (subject to availability and staff evaluation).

Note: Because children move up together each school year, there are usually a limited number of spots available in Bumblebees, Butterflies, Fireflies, and Ladybugs.

On March 16th, we began the enrollment process for the 2026-27 school year at Mind and Body Kids. Families who are not currently enrolled will need to complete a tour of our facility to receive an enrollment application package.

Priority for enrollment in our preschool program will always be given to families that are currently enrolled. In the spring, our enrolled families have the chance to pre-enroll for the next school year by providing a preliminary notification to the center. Any spots not reserved by existing families will be available for outside families, following this priority:

1. Siblings of children currently enrolled in our school

2. Siblings of alumni families of our school

3. Other relatives of existing or alumni families of our school

4. Children on the waitlist for a current spot (willing to start immediately)

5. Outside families based on the Date/Time of submission of the enrollment packet

A spot in the program will not be considered secured without a completed enrollment packet and the full, non-refundable enrollment fee paid.

For families enrolling in the Bumblebees, Butterflies, Fireflies, or Ladybugs rooms, a child must begin attending as soon as an available spot in the current year program arises for the spot to be considered secured (otherwise, it will be deemed a waitlist spot). We implement this policy because any family that enrolls in the current year program would have priority based on our guidelines.

If a space in our Mind and Body Kids preschool program is not available at your desired start date for your child, you may opt to place your child on our waitlist.  

To add your name to our waitlist, you must complete the following steps in the enrollment process:  

1. Schedule and take a tour of our facility  

2. Complete an enrollment packet  

3. Pay a non-refundable enrollment fee within 48 hours of a space becoming available  

Names on the waitlist will be prioritized in this order:  

1. Siblings of children currently enrolled in our preschool program  

2. Siblings of alumni families of our school  

3. Other relatives of alumni or currently enrolled families  

4. Date/Time of submission of the enrollment packet  

Once a space becomes available, the family at the top of the waitlist will be notified. After notification, the family has 48 hours to either accept or decline the spot. If that period lapses, the next family on the waitlist will be contacted. Once accepted, the child must be enrolled and start within 2 weeks of the notification or the availability date, whichever is later.
