About Luca's Rainbow Bilingual Preschool II in Springfield, VA
We are a Bilingual Montessori-based daycare in Springfield. We care for children from 4 months to School Age (6 and older) and provide a range of age-appropriate resources and activities to encourage their development right up until they are ready to join school.
Who We Are
Luca's Rainbow Bilingual Preschool II got its start in Springfield in 2023 by Flor Brea. We decided to do things a bit differently at Luca's Rainbow by creating a space which fosters early learning in a fun and safe environment where children from 4 months to School Age (6 and older) can explore the world around them.
We believe our innovative approach gives children a bright and positive start in life as we encourage both exploration and discovery as well as emotional intelligence and building friendships.
Our Philosophy
Our philosophy is based on learning and creativity. By implementing a Spanish Bilingual blended Montessori method that incorporates indoor and outdoor classrooms and environments in a home-away-from-home environment, we are able to create a space where children feel empowered and ready to learn.
Our Vision
Our vision is to create a safe and supportive atmosphere that will encourage each child to develop physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively in a Spanish bilingual environment.
Our Approach
Our low teacher-to-student ratio allows us to focus on each child individually. Teachers work one-on-one with children, allowing them to learn and grow at their own pace using a Spanish Bilingual blended Montessori program.
Our Mission
Our mission at Luca’s Rainbow is to provide young children with opportunities to learn and grow in a safe and nurturing environment by providing them with an immersed Spanish bilingual blended Montessori approach.

In our final room, the Kindergarten classroom, children engage in intellectually stimulating activities that encourage them to investigate their surroundings and suggest, plan, and implement projects.
The curriculum covers various areas:
Oral Language: Activities focus on building vocabulary and phonological awareness, including participation in conversations and formulating investigative questions.
Reading: Students immerse in a print-rich environment, learning phonetic principles, comprehension, letter identification, and story-related skills through instruction, group activities, and reading materials.
Writing: Students make connections between oral and written language, learning to print letters and communicate ideas through drawings, letter approximations, and dictation.
Math: Emphasis is on number concepts, sorting, patterns, shapes, measurement, and fractions, with hands-on learning experiences and problem-solving.
Science: Students explore their world through observation, studying water, living things, Earth's relationship with the sun, and basic physics principles.
Social Studies: Introduction to community-focused topics, including history, citizenship, geography, history, and respect for rules and rights.
Throughout, problem-solving skills are integrated, fostering a holistic educational experience that prepares children for their academic journey while nurturing their curiosity and understanding of the world around them.
All of what the children have learned with us up until this point has been preparing them for the transition into school. By the time they leave us, we aim to have left a lasting and positive change in their lives.
Merging Teaching and Childcare
We offer a variety of programs, including daycare for infants and toddlers, preschool, pre-kindergarten, and kindergarten.
We believe that it’s never too early to start learning and that it’s vital to always present opportunities for children to learn and grow as soon as they start at our center.
By developing our programs with curriculum experts and childcare specialists, we’ve been able to hone in on what makes early education a success and created a learning program that allows our children to enter school seamlessly.
