Preschool education, education during the earliest phases of childhood, beginning in infancy and ending upon entry into primary school at about five, six, or seven years of age.
Every child deserves access to quality early childhood education. Preschool provides an environment for children to explore, gain a sense of self, play with peers and build self-confidence. Children learn they can accomplish tasks and make decisions without the help of their parents.
However, choosing a preschool for your little one can be a challenge. Not only do you consider the quality of the school, but you also have to consider the traffic and your location in Jakarta.
Here are 13 recommended preschools in Jakarta:
1. Integrated Childrenโs Academy (ICA)
