Why Families Chose Creative Hands Preschool:
“We felt that the co-op and play-based models were a good fit for our daughter and family. When we toured the class our daughter jumped right in to playing and seemed right at home.”
“The ability to be involved in my child’s day and get to know the teachers and her friends. We liked that it was close to home and felt it was a good fit.”
“I liked the small teacher/parent-to-child ratio that was made possible by the co-op model. I also really liked that I would have the opportunity to see what was happening in the classroom firsthand and be a small part of the experience. During our tour, I was very drawn to the play-based educational approach. All of the sensory activity stations and dramatic play were right up my child’s alley!”
“The cost, safety and security of the school and playground, and overall dedication to a wonderful experience for parents and kids.”
