Our Program
Hungry Caterpillars Early Education Center is a Spanish immersion preschool inspired by Reggio Emilia and Montessori principles. While Spanish immersion is central to our program, we also introduce English phonics to build early literacy skills and ensure children are well-prepared for kindergarten.
Our approach sparks creativity with natural materials and exploration, encourages independence, and provides a balanced environment where children grow in both Spanish and English, giving them the confidence to thrive.
