Landmark of Ridgefield Academy is an independent preschool serving children ages 2 years to five years.
We encourage young children to explore, discover, and enjoy new challenges.
We believe children are curious, capable, and ready to learn at an early age.
Our balanced program inspires children of all levels by enhancing their social-emotional, intellectual, and physical development.
We dedicate ourselves to helping each child discover his or her intrinsic talents in a stimulating, nurturing, and creative environment.
We foster that love of learning through the use of teaching introductory academic concepts with games and songs.
Children don't view learning and playing as two separate things.
At Landmark, we do not either. Our program seeks to aid the young child in building a secure bridge for his or her new expanding world while at the same time, helping to develop a lifelong love of learning.
