Our play-based preschool fosters healthy growth and development through a unique parent-participation approach.

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide quality early childhood education in an accredited parent participation program. We foster the healthy growth and development of preschool age children through developmentally appropriate practices and parent education, building strong partnerships among family, teachers, and the community.
