Ready, Set, Grow Preschool
“ A new Preschool program for hearing children – opening Fall 2009!”
We are excited by our plans to open a second classroom as a regular preschool program in the fall of 2009! The new class will provide a developmentally appropriate curriculum and materials, with plenty of time for play, to children with typical hearing. This class is a new, separate program from our current class. more info>>>
We offer two, three and five morning preschool programming and extended care until 4:30 pm.
Serving infants, toddlers, and preschoolers in a bright, warm, and developmentally appropriate environment. |

Your child could learn to listen and speak this year at hear ME now!, Maine's oral deaf learning center for children who are deaf or hard of hearing.
Today, most babies born with hearing loss can have access to meaningful sound. Carefully aided, these children can detect most, if not all, of the speech spectrum. Carefully taught, they can learn to listen and speak.
What makes hear ME now! unique in Maine is the educational program for parents and children designed by our experienced professionals - teachers of the deaf, speech language pathologists, and audiologist. Programming and support is designed to maximize a child's residual hearing and promote the development of spoken language.

Our staff understands that hearing sound is only the beginning.
Children must learn to translate those sounds into meaningful words. That's a tough, technical, time-consuming task. No child, no family can do it alone. They need help.
They need hear ME now! |
