Six years ago when I was looking for a preschool for my boys,all of my neighbors recommended this preschool.It has been in the neighborhood for almost half a century and all the teachers we met are amazing !
My boys made so many friends there and me too.I am so excited that they still hang out with their preschool BFF and me too:-)
Both of our boys have attended Little People's Preschool and we feel so fortunate to have found this gem of a school in our neighbourhood. Every day there is something new to explore, whether on the science table, the "office" and house play areas or climbing apparatuses - perfect for curious young minds. The teachers are not stuck to a stagnant calendar routine, but circle times are full of lively, age-appropriate discussions about what is happening in the world and in the kids' lives. They go on really neat field trips and incorporate many different cultural celebrations. As a mom, I have loved being involved in the preschool and for the opportunity to watch my children interact in the preschool environment. Little People is a school where the whole family is involved and supported.
Great school, great teachers, and great parents! We've been there for four years and have two more years to go, and we love it. The teachers are creative, interactive, and love to do just about anything with the kids. We've experienced Hawaiian parties, making pasta, painting with potatoes, playing dress up, sawing/nailing wood, and the list goes on and on!!
This will be my fourth and final year as a "participating" parent at this great preschool and I know I will be extremely sad come next June when it ends. Both my sons have gone to Little People's Preschool, my youngest currently in his last year. I would highly recommend this preschool to anyone who loves being a part of their child's education and who appreciates a play-based curriculum with teachers who really care and who are extremely creative in their thoughts and how they teach the children. The children learn by doing. It is a very hands-on preschool with a very go-with-the-flow attitude that suits me and my boys. I have met some great people here, some who I know will remain friends for years to come. There is never a dull moment at Little People's Preschool.
It is our daughter's second year at Little People Preschool. We can't say enough about this preschool. The preschool itself is spacious, cozy and clean. The teachers are fantastic and it attracts a fabulous group of parents that are all devoted to the their kids and the school. Our daughter comes home full of new knowledge and bubbling with stories. Most importantly we see her thriving socially and gaining confidence by the day thanks to devoted teachers that really understand what it takes to turn toddlers into bright, curious, caring young children ready to face the challenges of elementary school.
