Another significant part of our curriculum is our Kind Child program. Kind Child is a year-long program for children ages two and older that helps our teachers nurture and strengthen every child’s social and emotional skills. We have found that when we focus on the emotional well-being of each child in our care, we strengthen our school as well. We are confident that Kind Child will continue to strengthen the culture of our entire preschool center by elevating every child’s feelings of happiness, improving their well-being, and enriching their friendships.

Thanks to the flexibility of our Ascend Curriculum, we take an individualized approach to early childhood education and encourage every child to progress towards age-appropriate goals at their natural pace. New skills are introduced sequentially in 9 different learning domains each month and activities are modified to fit the interests and current skill level of each child. This skill-based approach to early education ensures that every child feels engaged, supported, and challenged and makes learning fun!
Mr. Bailey is originally from a small town down in the Central Valley called Hanford but moved up North to attend UC Davis where he got his bachelor’s degree in Human Development with a minor in Sociology. He has been teaching preschoolers for nearly three years and half of that time has been at Cadence Academy Preschool. Mr. Bailey loves spending his days helping and molding the students in his class to become the amazing people they are meant to be. When he’s not teaching, he loves spending time with friends and family camping, hiking or just enjoying some authentic Mexican restaurants. One thing to know about him is that he absolutely loves music! It is a guarantee that Safari Club friends will always be ready for dance parties and silly games to help incorporate educational fun.
