Explore the world of Early Ivy Education, where we specialize in providing exceptional care for infants through preschool, along with after-school programs. The Woodlands campus is dedicated to embracing the principles of the renowned Reggio Emilia approach, creating dynamic learning environments that encourage curiosity, creativity, and exploration.
What Makes Us Different
We know it takes a community to truly master the whole child approach. We embrace varied family compositions so that the individual child may flourish.
Premier Reggio Curriculum
Originating in the picturesque town of Reggio Emilia, Italy, the Reggio Emilia approach to early childhood education is rooted in the profound belief that each child is a unique individual with boundless potential for learning and expression.
Central to the Reggio Emilia philosophy is the utilization of children’s senses as powerful tools for exploration and discovery. By engaging sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell, this approach fosters a rich and multisensory learning experience. Reggio Emilia classrooms are intentionally designed to reflect this sensory-focused approach, featuring spacious and open environments adorned with natural elements and a wealth of stimulating materials.
At Early Ivy Education, we embrace the principles of the Reggio Emilia approach to create dynamic learning spaces where children are encouraged to follow their curiosity, explore their surroundings, and express themselves creatively. Through our thoughtfully curated curriculum and natural environments, we provide opportunities for children to engage with the world around them, fostering a lifelong love for learning and inquiry.
Join us on a journey of discovery and growth as we nurture the unique potential of every child.
Safety & Health
Our top priorities are the health and safety of your children. Children must feel safe and that their needs are being met in order for them to be able to truly learn and engage with their environment. Our rigorous health and safety procedures begin at our secure entrances where families must provide credentials for entry into our facilities. Other health and safety promises include:
- Daily health checks for children
- Frequent cleaning procedures to stop the spread of germs
- Strict hand washing procedures
- Criminal background checks on all teachers and caregivers
- Required CPR/First Aid training for all staff
- Social-emotional focused training for teachers to better support developing learners
- Proactive, inclusive environment where all are truly welcome
Parent Partnership
At Early Ivy Education, we prioritize keeping you informed and involved in your child’s daily experiences. With the Brightwheel smartphone app, you’ll stay updated on your child throughout the day with private videos, pictures, or announcements of their activities and development. We believe that strong collaboration between parents and teachers is essential for supporting children’s learning and development.
How the Brightwheel App Supports Collaboration:
- Instant Updates: Receive real-time updates on your child’s activities, milestones, and achievements.
- Secure Communication: Engage in private conversations with your child’s teachers to discuss progress, concerns, and goals.
Meet Our Leadership Team
Isabelle Revelli
Director
Hello, my name is Isabelle Revelli. I have been working in early childhood for 26 years. I hold a bachelor’s degree from Paris Sud University. I genuinely enjoy seeing children discover the world around them, interacting with them, and guiding them to explore and build vital critical thinking skills through hands-on fun activities. I also strongly believe in the value of expositing young children to art and music. In my free time, I have run four Houston Marathons and several Sprint Triathlons. Besides spending time with my family, swimming and running are my happy places. My husband and I immigrated to the US from France in 1995. We have four children.
Ashley Woolridge
Regional Director
Hello, my name is Ashley Woolridge and I am an early childhood education advocate with over 10 years of experience in the education field. From caring for infants to leading professional development training for teaching staff, I have found great joy in serving students, families, and staff. I believe working collaboratively amongst teachers and parents throughout the early childhood development stages builds a bridge that allows education to extend outside of the classroom, while empowering parents as the students first teachers. It is my goal to ensure Early Ivy Education provides a safe and secure learning environment where all children can thrive.
I am a proud graduate of both Berea College and Grand Canyon University. I currently reside in Humble, TX with my beautiful family, where free time is spent coaching and enjoying my children’s many extracurricular activities.
