About Jana Nelson

Jana Nelson offers in-home care and eduction for the children of Austin and their lucky families! In-home education means an easy transition for children from family-based care at home to a learning environment with other children and staff. In a small, cozy setting, children at Jana Nelson will benefit from relatively small group sizes and a family-feel environment yet still gain the educational and learning benefits that come from a structured, professional provider. The benefit of a full-time schedule for children, too, can be dramatic! In a structured, repeated learning environment, students will play with the same peers, get familiar with the same staff and experience something new every day. The full-time schedule at Jana Nelson offers families these things for their children in an environment that’ll soon become a real community. Parents get the advantages of long blocks of time to work while students will grow their social, behavioral and cognitive skills. Jana Nelson also offers a technology curriculum that helps prepare students early for the twenty-first century. Students will experience hands-on technology activities that develop their creativity, initiative and natural curiosity, all through a lens of the tools and media that will only grow in importance in their lives in the years to come. Interacting with technology in a structured curriculum will also help students view technology as a medium through which to explore and discover rather than just a means to passively consume entertainment.
