Inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, we view children as capable, curious, and full of potential, recognizing them as active participants in their learning journey. We believe children learn best when their natural curiosity is nurtured, and we provide them with the tools and opportunities to explore the world around them. Our approach fosters intrinsic motivation—learning driven by excitement, wonder, and a genuine desire to understand. By cultivating a child-centered, inquiry-based environment, we empower each child to grow into their unique potential.

We offer a variety of programs thoughtfully designed to meet the unique needs of each age and developmental stage. Aligned with the Connecticut Early Learning and Development Standards, our programs ensure comprehensive, age-appropriate learning experiences. Children are grouped exclusively with peers of the same age in each classroom, fostering developmentally appropriate interactions and growth.

Our Infant Program provides a nurturing environment where babies can thrive through sensory learning and exploration. With the caring attention of our dedicated teachers, infants engage in imaginative play, explore safe spaces, and form essential emotional bonds. We focus on individualized care, offering activities that stimulate the senses, promote motor development, and provide the comfort and security every baby needs to grow.

Our program fosters a language-rich environment for toddlers that encourages movement, social interaction, and discovery. Toddlers naturally love to ask questions, learn new skills, and build friendships, and our daily activities are designed to support these milestones. By promoting vocabulary development, social-emotional growth, and physical play, we guide toddlers as they express themselves and build connections with peers.
Our Bridge Program introduces children to structured routines while encouraging them to explore their own interests. Using the Project Approach, we craft hands-on, curiosity-driven activities that are meaningful and engaging. Children in this program experience collaborative play, group activities, and early problem-solving, all while developing essential skills such as cooperation, turn-taking, and independence.

Trumbull Pre-School Program

Our Preschool Program combines project-based learning with age-appropriate academic and literacy skill development. Through hands-on, play-based activities, children explore foundational concepts in literacy, mathematics, science, and art at their own pace. Guided by experienced teachers, children build confidence and a sense of responsibility as they take on leadership roles in activities, cultivating a lifelong love of learning.
We are dedicated to fostering the holistic growth of every child. Our Enrichment Programs provide opportunities for physical development, art, yoga, music, STEM curriculum, and more. These activities enhance our core programs, broadening children’s horizons through creative arts, movement, and mindfulness practices. Designed to promote emotional well-being and inspire curiosity, our enrichment offerings empower children to explore their passions and build a well-rounded foundation for future growth.

Our facility is thoughtfully designed to nurture each child’s potential. Spacious classrooms spark creativity and engage the senses, while our indoor gym and outdoor playground offer ample opportunities for physical activity, supporting both health and exploration. Children enjoy the space and tools they need to run, climb, and discover, all within a safe and welcoming environment.

Your child’s safety is our highest priority. We maintain rigorous health and safety standards to ensure our facility is always clean, secure, and well-maintained. Our staff is fully trained in safety protocols, and our facility is equipped with secure entry systems, cameras, and panic buttons. These measures provide peace of mind, knowing your child is cared for in a safe and nurturing environment.
We believe that education is a collaborative partnership between our team and your family. At Strong Start Trumbull, we prioritize open communication and actively encourage families to engage in their children’s learning journey. We provide resources and support to help you feel connected to our community and invite you to join the many events and activities we host throughout the year. Our Parent Council plays a key role in planning events like food drives and celebrating our amazing teachers who dedicate themselves to the care and growth of your children.
