Play-based preschool in Los Gatos, ages 18 months to 5

A school that feels like a good morning.

Three small rooms, a garden out back and teachers who get down on the rug. Your child plays all day. We make sure the play adds up to something.

Tours Tuesday and Thursday, 9:30am. Bring the kids.

A bright classroom with small wooden chairs around a yellow table, a box of colourful blocks, a green chalkboard on an easel and a round green rug.

The rooms

Three rooms. Pick the one that fits right now.

Each room is built for one stage, with its own ratio, its own rhythm and its own pile of muddy boots. Tap a room and the price below follows you.

A day here

Sunrise to pick up, in six stops.

Same rhythm every day, so even the smallest kids know what comes next. Scroll and the sun does the rest.

  1. 7:30am

    Drop off

    Hang the coat, find a friend, hug at the door. Early kids get toast.

  2. 9:00am

    Circle

    A song, a question of the day and the weather report from whoever wants the job.

  3. 10:00am

    Garden

    Outside in all weather. Digging, watering, chasing, the occasional worm funeral.

  4. 12:00pm

    Lunch

    Family style at small tables. Kids pour their own water and pass the bowls.

  5. 1:00pm

    Nap

    Lights low, cots out, a teacher humming. Non sleepers rest with a book.

  6. 3:00 to 5:30

    Snack, free play and a one line note on how the day went.

From our families

What parents tell us at pick up.

  • Our son cried for three days, then started asking to go on Saturdays. The toddler team never once made us feel rushed at the door.

    Dana, Toddlers parent

  • She comes home with dirt under her nails and a new fact about worms. That is exactly what we wanted from a preschool.

    Priya, Twos and Threes parent

  • Kindergarten teacher said he was one of the most settled kids in class. No flashcards, just a lot of building and talking.
