Classrooms are separated by age as follows:

Young 2’s:  children must be 2 years old at the start of the session
2 1/2 ‘s:  children must be 2 ½ at the start of the session
3’s:  children must be 3 and potty trained at the start of the session

Pre-K:  children must be 4 by August 31 for the current Fall Session
Kindergarten: children must be 5 by October 1st of the current school year

Teacher to child ratio varies by class based on age.  Paradise for Tots keeps class ratios at or below those set by the state of Arizona.  All classes have 2 loving and qualified teachers per room. 

Registration:

Children may be registered for 2, 3, 4, or 5 days/per week with tuition due on a monthly basis.   We do not assign class days.  We allow you the option to choose the specific days of the week your child will attend and these will be your scheduled days for attendance.  In order to maintain our Teacher/Child ratios and consistency within the classroom, you must adhere to your scheduled days.  We do not accept “drop-ins”. 

Before and after school childcare is flexible and a child may attend on any day that he attends the preschool class.

Registration begins the last week of January for the upcoming Fall and Summer Sessions for families who currently have children enrolled in the school.  Open enrollment for new registrations begins the first week of February.  To register, return the registration paperwork along with the appropriate registration fee to the school office.  Registrations are accepted on a first come/first serve basis.  Registrations can also be accepted during a current session if space permits.  Once classrooms are full, we will take a wait list for children who want to enroll during that session.
