Meadow Oaks Academy is a private preschool program with a focus on the physical, emotional and developmental needs of your children, nurturing the whole child. We believe that early childhood is a crucial time period for the development of the child’s mental functions. This development, including the emergence of the abilities and skills in areas such as language, motor skills, psychosocial cognitive and learning, is greatly influenced by the educational environment to which the child is exposed during the first 4 years of life.
We are proud of our Preschool Developmental STEAM Curriculum which fosters growth in six developmental domains: Affective, Social, Creative, Language, Cognitive and Physical.
Let Meadow Oaks Academy help with your decision in selecting a private preschool. We understand this is a very important decision and we commit to assist you in any way possible.

Colorado Early Learning and Development Guidelines
Colorado Early Learning and Development Guidelines
The Guiding Principles below describe what we believe to be true both about children and about the environments that best support children’s growth and development. These Principles highlight aspects of children and early learning development that span across the domains. They were adopted from two highly regarded resources, Neurons to Neighborhoods and The Irreducible Needs of Children.
The Colorado Early Learning and Developmental Guidelines are based on the following principles:
Nature and nurture affect children’s development; child development is shaped by a dynamic and continuous interaction between biology and experience.
Culture influences every aspect of human development and is reflected in childrearing beliefs and practices designed to promote healthy adaptation.
The growth of self-regulation is a cornerstone of early childhood development that cuts across all domains of behavior.
Children are active participants in their own development, reflecting the intrinsic human drive to explore and master one’s own environment.
Human relationships are the building blocks of healthy development.
The broad range of individual differences among young children often makes it difficult to distinguish normal variations and maturational delays from transient disorders and persistent impairments.
The development of children unfolds along individual pathways whose trajectories are characterized by continuities and discontinuities, as well as by a series of significant transitions.
Human development is shaped by the ongoing interplay among sources of vulnerability and sources of resilience.
The timing of early experiences can matter, but, more often than not, the developing child remains vulnerable to risks and open to protective influences throughout the early years of life and into adulthood.
The course of development can be altered in early childhood by effective interventions that change the balance between risk and protection, thereby shifting the odds in favor of more adaptive outcomes.
