This research used a descriptive qualitative method, i.e., case study. The research data are derived from observation, interview, documentation, and document analysis.

This study concluded that Aura Sukma Insani Kindergarten applied blended learning and applied both synchronous and asynchronous modes of learning during pandemics. Besides, to support the teaching and learning process, the school has a special program namely, orientation and induction programs, and reflection and follow-up program.
