CommuniKids Preschool and Children’s Language Center, with centers in Northern Virginia and Washington, DC, is now open at 3111 Lauderdale Drive in Short Pump. CommuniKids offers several programs designed especially for young children in Spanish, French, and Mandarin Chinese, including full and half-day preschool, weekly classes, summer camps, and after-school care.
The benefits to starting foreign language instruction early in life are immense. The optimal time for language learning, or the “Window of Opportunity,” occurs in young children from birth to age 8. At that time in their development, young children’s brains are extremely flexible and are “hardwired” for language learning. Very young children have the ability to learn any of the world’s languages and to recreate them with a near-perfect accent. Recent research confirms that the advantages of learning another language go beyond the practical. Multilingual children also perform better in school in all subjects and have higher executive function skills.
For families searching for part- or full-time preschool, the CommuniKids language immersion preschool program offers a well-rounded, play-based, full-immersion curriculum in Spanish or French. Our after-school and weekend language classes give children enrolled in other schools a chance to complement their education with weekly exposure to French, Mandarin Chinese, and Spanish. And our summer camp program offers six weeks of full-immersion fun to students of all proficiency levels looking for intensive exposure to the language. CommuniKids also plans to offer an immersion after-school care program for school-aged children with transportation from nearby elementary schools.

Small people can do big things. At the Goddard School kids are learning you are never too young to feel good about helping others.
From December 5th until the 12th, kids at The Goddard Schools in Richmond are crafting for CJ! The tiny preschoolers are doing everything from decorating ornaments for auction, having a bake sale and hosting a spaghetti dinner to raise money. All proceeds from this week will benefit CJ’s Thumbs Up Foundation for deserving local families.
“All of our children got into the holiday spirit making ornaments for a great cause!”
Ms. Mary, Kindergarten teacher from The Goddard School located in Ashland, VA:
CJ’s Thumbs Up Foundation provides assistance to families with children with chronic and life-threatening illnesses through financial aid, meals, emergency bill pay assistance and more.
The 9 participating Goddard Schools are in the following cities: Ashland, Chester, Chesterfield, Glen Allen, Midlothian, Henrico, Mechanicsville.

Summer is quickly approaching and for some families this means kids wanting several months of fun and activities. This means more driving, and more planning and coordinating. But with a busy career and not enough vacation days, sometimes it can be nearly impossible for parents to keep up with an action-packed summer that your kids really want. This is where a summer nanny would be incredibly beneficial.
I spent years as a nanny and being a nanny over the summer was especially rewarding. I loved it, the kids loved it, and I could tell the parents loved it as well. It is a win win situation where everyone had less stress and more fun!
Here are a few reasons why I loved being a summer nanny:
1. No school, no school work. I never like seeing how stressed children get over school work. In summer, they can be more relaxed. Without busy school schedules, you and the children can have carefree fun all day for months! It’s a great time for the children and the nanny to just sit back and enjoy hanging out together. And mom and dad know that the kids are safe, having fun but being supervised.
2. More time, more bonding. Of course, being with a family after school every day allows for plenty of time to get to know children, but in summer when you are with the kids all day, you can learn all sorts of things about them! You can find out their favorite activities, their best friends, what they want to be when they grow up and even what troubles them. A nanny can be a great sounding board for the things kids go through.
3. More free time, more crafts! Personally, I love doing arts and crafts and baking. Summer is the time where I can finally go through all those ideas I thought looked so cool on Pinterest and actually do them! This has always been a big hit with the girls I nannied. They loved helping pick out the craft or recipe and spending time working on it together.
Now for the reasons your family will love having a summer nanny:
1. Less school, more time (for nannies in college). Most summer nannies will be available to help you from the moment the kids wake up to the moment you are home from work. In the summer, you don’t need to work around the nanny’s class schedule. They can be flexible and totally available to you and your children.
2. Not the neighbor’s 15 year old, but a nanny with a license to drive. When you have the kind of children that need constant entertainment, it is great to have a nanny with a license and a (safe) car! This opens up a lot of possibilities. The kids would be able to go to the pool, the mall, the movie theater, sports practice, day camps, you name it. Nannies are used to driving children to activities, so this is something they would be completely fine with doing and will probably even expect.
3. Children gone, Laundry done. All of those household chores and groceries you needed to do, done. When your nanny isn’t entertaining your children during a playdate for instance, she could be helping out in other ways. Most nanny positions include these things already so it’s perfectly normal to ask your nanny to help out a little around the house.
These are just a few reasons why a summer nanny is a wonderful idea. If you need help finding one, let College Nannies & Tutors assist you! We will do the searching for you, screen and approve the candidates and find the right fit for your family. That’s what we do, all day, every day. Our nannies are experienced, professional, and most of all, fun! As a nanny placement coordinator, I love helping families find the best nanny match while providing jobs to some really great role models! So visit our website, fill out a profile, and let us handle the rest!

What does the Montessori educational method have to do with today’s leaders? You might be surprised!
Clearly some of the key attributes of Montessori are essential elements for strong leadership:
- Self-directed learning
- Focus on creative problem solving and innovative
- Thinking
- Students teaching other students
- Stoking and encouraging curiosity
- Comfort with ambiguous situations
- Self-mastery of concepts to instill self-confidence
- Embracing failure as a learning opportunity
In a six-year study of 3,000 innovative executives, professors Jeff Dyer of Brigham Young University and Hal Gregersen of INSEAD in Europe discovered that a significant number of the respondents had gone to a Montessori school “where they learned to follow their curiosity.” Many of them are now some of the world’s strongest, most creative, and most innovative leaders among us.
The Montessori educational method encourages questions and creativity. It helps children look at problems as an opportunity to solve it versus being overwhelmed and intimidated by it. The teaching method instills confidence at the crucial age as children are developing skills, and helps create a crucial foundation for leadership skills.
According to the Montessori Method:
- teachers act as coaches and facilitators for children
- teachers have a deep respect for children
children are taught to be kind and peaceful- classrooms are diverse and include multiple age groups
- students are taught to help younger students
- children learn in their own way and at an individual pace
- students progress as they master new skills and move ahead when they are ready
- there are few texts, no homework, no tests and no grades
- rote memorization is eliminated in favor of helping children truly understand a subject
- children learn that failure is acceptable and mistakes are learning experiences
So are these precepts that emerge from creativity, curiosity and self-awareness also predictors of future success for leaders?

Making Friends
August is here and that can only mean one thing — it’s time to go back to school! A new school year brings lots of new things for children — schedules, teachers and maybe even a new backpack! With so much excitement, it’s important to remember that some children may need a bit of encouragement when it comes to one very important back-to-school component—making new friends.
By age 3, children are very aware of those around them. The friends they make at school will help them develop social skills such as sharing and taking turns. Friendships can also lead to a whole new appreciation and respect for differences. Once those first-day jitters are gone, your child is likely to begin observing others and recognizing classmates with shared interests. Here are a few tips to help your child feel more confident about saying, “Hi!” to new friends:
Set expectations.
As a parent, you are in a position to teach your child to treat others with kindness. The Golden Rule is a perfect way to introduce this idea to your child. Encourage her to show appreciation when a friend is kind or helpful. Also remind your child that hurting another child’s feelings is not something good friends do.
Teach him how to be a good friend.
Help your child understand that you need to be a good friend to have good friends. Your child must understand how his behavior can impact someone else, so it is a lesson you want to start teaching early and practice often. Point out when your child is demonstrating “good friend” behaviors, such as sharing. As your child repeatedly hears what attributes make a good friend, he’ll internalize the concept.
Turn to books.
There are plenty of children’s books with wonderful lessons in friendship. As you read the book with your child, talk about each character’s “good friend” traits and specific things the characters said or did that made them good friends.
- Will I have a Friend? by Miriam Cole
- Do You Want to Be My Friend? by Eric Carle
- Owen & Mzee: Best Friends by Isabella Hatkoff, Craig Hatkoff, and Dr. Paula Kahumbu

It will definitely benefit them in their academic performance for the next year and make it easier for them to excel.
According to the National Summer Learning Association, kids forget math, reading and spelling skills over summer. Some professionals refer to summer as “the brain drain”. Now you can do something to help kids during the summer by engaging a summer tutor from College Nannies + Tutors.
