Preschools

Hi everyone,

I’m hoping to get some anecdotes, recommendations or suggestions on preschools in the area. My daughter will be 4 in the summer, so I’m looking for a late summer start date. She’s has been with a nanny so far so this will be her first real exposure to school/daycare settings.

I have been looking and a lot of what I am seeing are franchises like La petit, Goddard, primrose, Montessori, etc. and it seems from reddit and reviews that these schools prioritize money over students and that the quality of care is very dependent on staff at the location.

I’m hoping to find somewhere that prioritizes social emotional learning and curiosity, and also has a pre-k curriculum to help kids get school ready. Also a balance of structured and unstructured play time. Also hoping for a school that uses positive reinforcement with behavior, and prioritizes diversity and celebrating/learning about other cultures. My daughter is not white so this is important to me.

Any personal experiences, suggestions, good or bad experiences are welcome!! Please feel free to offer any thoughts. Thank you!!
