Creating the Happiest Learning Spaces

Providing children with the best-in-class facilities to explore and grow, Kara4kids is setting a new benchmark for preschools in India.

Choosing a good preschool for your toddler is the first most important decision parents make for their children. It is their first time away from the comfort of their home and they should be made to feel safe and secure. Kara4kids provides exactly that and much more. Following the highly acclaimed early years’ teaching methodologies, they have developed an integrated curriculum which follows an eclectic approach towards learning as they believe that children learn with deep understanding by watching, interacting and working within an organic and nurturing environment; from the world around them. Ensuring that children are not restricted by a space constraint, Kara4kids aims to extend learning beyond classrooms keeping in mind with what Zigler says – “Children bring more than their brains to school.”

With over 12 years of experience in dealing with children and helping them grow, Kara4kids goes by the philosophy, “The stronger the start, the greater the finish”. They aim to lovingly nurture children in a safe and homely environment by stimulating their social, emotional, cognitive, and physical growth through innovative methodologies, learning advancements, and expertise. Keeping the child as the epicentre of their world, they ardently believe that the fledgling years of a child are of paramount importance; since the emotional and mental enrichment they receive during this age are instrumental in shaping their future well-being.

Kara4kids has a customised formative years programme. They follow international standards for their day care facilities where the Infant and Toddler Care Ratio is at 1:1 and 1:2 respectively so that each and every child is attended to with utmost care. They provide an exploratory environment that enhances learning by play. Kara4kids tries to maintain a familylike environment for children which truly ensures that it is their home away from home.
