About Us
Our name : Illume is simply a reference to light and our acronym (Inspiring Learning and Leadership Unto Meaning and Excellence). Indeed, the journey we embark on here can be best characterized as an exciting pursuit.
Our Motivation
Our passion for education and our desire to serve others are the reasons we started Illume Pursuits Preschool. With an immersive environment dedicated to learning 21st century skills, we aspire to guide children through academic and social learning experiences that inspire faith, hope, and love. We are also excited to establish meaningful relationships with parents in hopes of establishing a community where love is evident.
Our Philosophy
Children are inherent learners as they engage and play with the world around them. Mindful of their inner genius and playful spirit, our curricula incorporate movement, hands-on fun activities, and developmentally appropriate practices based on research from the California Department of Education's Preschool Learning Foundations and Curriculum Frameworks.
Our Learning Environment
As a licensed Family Child Care Home (license # 304311557) operating as a preschool in Irvine, we are required by law to have no more than 14 students. With our small class size and at least two of us always present, we can focus on developing your child's individual needs in depth. For pictures of our learning environment, visit Gallery.
