At Jeu d'enfant, we know that children learn best when they are having fun. The home-based setting and small classes provides the environment necessary for their growth. We believe that learning another language is an important tool for today's worldly children. By learning French at a young age, children increase their ability to engage in other languages and improve their musical and mathematical abilities.
 
You will feel good leaving your child with us, because you know that your child will be safe, will learn to socialize, and will learn Kindergarten pre-requisites. Schools nowadays expect children to know basic information (such as colors, shapes, letters, numbers and personal information.) At Jeu d'enfant, your child will gradually learn all of these, but will still be a child; a happy child that feels comfortable in a caring environment.

So, please come and visit a class. You will see how your child could enjoy learning French while having fun!
