Start Here Preschool

Our Approach to Early Learning

Start Here! Preschool embraces a unique approach to early childhood education that emphasizes play-based learning and parent involvement. We believe that children learn best through exploration and discovery, and that collaboration between parents and educators fosters a strong foundation for young minds.

A Partnership with Parents

Our school operates as a co-operative, meaning that parents actively contribute to the day-to-day operations and curriculum development. This close partnership allows parents to:

• Participate in their children's learning through daily engagement
• Stay informed about curriculum activities
• Directly impact school policies through the non-profit board of directors
• Develop close bonds with teachers and fellow parents

Experienced and Dedicated Staff

Our dedicated team of professionals comprises experienced early childhood educators, each passionate about nurturing young minds and fostering a love for learning.
