Listos opened in the fall of 2015 as Rochester's first dual immersion early learning program. We are a local independent, nonprofit program that grew out of a grassroots effort to provide diverse, inclusive, high-quality bilingual education. In Spanish, Listos means both smart and ready. The curriculum and culture at Listos help prepare children for kindergarten and the world.
The program accommodates all children's language abilities. Children with little or no exposure to either Spanish or English outside of the classroom quickly adapt when immersed in the languages. Children at Listos experience art, math, science, music, literacy and movement in both Spanish and English.

Dual immersion teaches a second language the same way children learned their first language, naturally. Preschool age children are in the prime language learning years of their lives. Brain research shows the majority of language learning happens from birth to age five. By providing an engaging, safe environment, children at Listos absorb two languages.
Each year, Listos provides families in need with financial assistance and scholarships, thanks to the generous support of people like you. We also accept donations of classroom supplies.
Gently used items that we can repurpose include, balls, dress up clothing, children's board games, children's books, coffee table books, camping dishes, cookie cutters, wooden puzzles and building toys such as wooden blocks, large Legos, Tinker Toys, Lincoln Logs.

Our grandson attends this preschool and daycare. I have found the staff to be very friendly and caring. I requested to be put on the mailing list for the classroom so I could keep up with the learning units. It was no problem and I really appreciate feeling like I am welcomed to be involved, even though I am not a parent of a student. I highly recommend this school!

I found this school to be unprofessional the director is rude and basically called me a liar when I mentioned something her staff hadn't said and she claimed they would have told me. Very little experience is the impression i got Christina emailed me with important information on the weekend rather than talking to me to my face. Keeping children in separate rooms after other children have left just because they didn't rest in the way they thought was suitable. Christina then offered to refund half the registration fee because she thought i owed her but when it was proved i did not she basically

As an educator (I taught Pre-K for 6 years and have been with Kindergarten for 2), and parent (my son has been attending since September), I am super impressed with all aspects of Listos Preschool and Childcare. The director, teachers, support staff, and board members do an awesome job. They make sure that the students are receiving the best social, personal, and academic education. The communication between parents/guardians and Listos is professional regarding concerns or recommendations. Listos will do what they can to address and accomodate concerns or recommendations, keeping in mind what
