THERAPEUTIC PRESCHOOL
The Therapeutic Preschool Program is a unique service in Jakarta. It is designed for children that struggle to succeed in a childcare or preschool due to social, behavioral or language disorders.
After over 10 years in the field, we have come to realize that small groups are an ideal therapeutic settings because they offer the optimal combination of structure and variation, allowing program individualization in the context of social relation with peers.
