Whether your child is an infant taking first steps toward social discovery or a preschooler ready to build foundational academics, this program is structured to meet them where they are.

Carden Dominion's Lomita campus sits just minutes from Torrance via Narbonne Avenue, making morning drop-off straightforward for parents commuting through the Harbor Gateway corridor or toward the 405 or Pacific Coast Highway.

What Does Carden Dominion's Preschool Program Include?
The program covers far more than basic childcare. The Carden curriculum is a comprehensive academic and developmental framework that sets it apart from standard daycare options.
Curriculum Subjects and Daily Learning
The Carden curriculum includes Foreign Language, Music, Art, Computers, Physical Education, and Science woven into each child's day. Language arts build sentence structure and comprehension from an early age. Math concepts are introduced progressively, and each age group builds directly on what came before, creating a true academic ladder rather than isolated lessons.
Whole-Child Development
The program guides children to make decisions, develop self-discipline, and learn to work both independently and alongside others. Daily schedules balance teacher-directed activities and student-initiated play, active periods and quiet time, and group and individual participation. Low adult-to-child ratios ensure every child receives personalized attention.
