We are licensed by the Maryland State Department of Education, and we follow the learning principles and early childhood development practices of the Howard County Pre-Kindergarten Curriculum. Peanuts/peanuts butter snacks are not allowed, and neither are items made in a facility that also processes nuts.
If a child has additional allergies, those foods are not served to any children of that class. Hands and mouths are wiped upon entering the classroom. With one of the smallest class sizes for co-ops in Howard County, your child receives individual attention and is able to progress at his or her own pace.

About Us
Report
We use the Little Treasures curriculum in our four year-old class. This curriculum is one of six curriculum packages approved by the State of Maryland. In the two-year-old and three-year-old classes, we follow the learning principles and early childhood development practices of the Howard County Pre-Kindergarten Curriculum, which is based on recommended practices from the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).
Our Classes
Report
Through a wide variety of "learning through play" activities, we expose children to language arts, music, mathematics, social development, and science. Each child's progress in all areas - social and emotional skills, language arts, math, problem-solving skills, and physical development - is communicated to parents at regularly scheduled conferences as well as on an informal basis (at pickup/drop-off, email, phone, and etc).
Testimonials
Report
WLCN is the best co-op in Howard County! My family and I have been a part of the school for 6 years with 2 children and we have loved our time there. The curriculum is the perfect balance of play and structured learning which has prepared both of my kids really well for the transition to elementary school.
Co-Op Experience
Report
You'll participate, along with the teacher and assistant teacher, to help your child adjust to this major step away from home. As a member of the co-op, you will observe and participate in your child's development and enjoy close communication with the teachers and other parents. Mothers, fathers, and even grandparents are encouraged to participate as fully as possible.
Faq
Report
No, toilet training is not required. We do ask that each child have a back up outfit available in their cubby in case of accidents. It is the philosophy of WLCN that many, if not most, discipline problems can be prevented by adequate supervision and appropriate planning.
The staff and co-oping parent will work together to ensure, whenever possible, that undesirable behavior (teasing, grabbing, hitting, name-calling, etc.) is re-directed before a more serious problem occurs.Our goal is to provide a positive approach to discipline for each child. Discipline will be used to teach and guide, not punish the child.
