The Paige Monroe Academy is located in a bright, sunny apartment just 2 miles from the Santa Monica Pier. Our high ceilings and open floor plan allow for a generous amount of space to play and learn.<br/><br/>We have four extra-long windows in our main learning center, inviting sunlight, waving palm trees, and passerby furry friends in the picture windows to entertain and delight.<br/><br/>Just a five-minute walk takes you to the Colorado Center Playground &amp; Picnic Area. Or for a more adventurous hike, Douglas Park is simply 15 mins from there.<br/><br/>We’ve designed our care environment with play and learning areas that allow children to explore various developmentally-appropriate activities based on their interests. Some of our favorite areas include the dramatic play area (for self-expression and empathy), music and movement area (for physical activity and cultural learning), and manipulatives and math area (for fine motor skills and beginning math concepts).<br/><br/>Children will have outdoor time every day at a mix of both our private yard and local parks and playgrounds. Connecting with nature is vital to a child’s happiness and growth.<br/><br/>At the Paige Monroe Academy, we want to provide an environment that supports the cognitive, social, and emotional growth of each child.
