Mom Seeking Preschool Geared Toward Young 5 Year Olds near Olmsted Falls

I am looking for a preschool program that is geared toward young 5 year olds. My son turns 5 at the end of next month. He turns 5 before the cutoff date in our school system so technically he is eligible to start kindergarten in the fall. I feel that he is ready academically, but I'm not confident that he is socially or emotionally prepared. Can anyone refer me to preschool programs geared toward children like mine? I am willing to travel within 10 miles of the 44138 zip code. I still may send him to kindergarten, but I want to be prepared either way. Thanks!

What can I do next?

We are in Creative Playrooms and Montessori. WE LOVE IT! My son is in the Montessori and he is 3 1/2 and has one of those late birthdays where he will be 4 if he enters kindergarden with the kids his age. I was really worried about that BUT not anymore.

He knows all the continents by shape, months, days of the week and MORE...and trust me, we did not teach him that. Please check out there website. There is a Westlake location 7.3 miles from your zip code! WE LOVE IT!! And he has learned to swim...they have an indoor pool!!

I would love some recommendations as well. I live in North Olmsted, and have a son turning 5 just before the cut-off. Likewise, I feel he'll do best being held back for emotional and social reasons.

I know that Olmsted Falls Community church has a program, and then Fit-by-Five in Westlake (on Center Ridge Rd) has a new program just for this age group! they aren't very far depending where in OF you live. Both have websites, just google them, thats how I found them.
