Hello mamas,

I'm looking for a wonderful local preschool for our almost 3 year old daughter. Out oldest went to an awesome preschool in CT, so our expectation is pretty high! Specifically, we're looking for a place that fosters independence, is high on nurturing creativity, encourages imaginative play, has no (or very little) video-time, practices gentle "discipline", and treats the children with love and respect.....we would love for her to attend a few days a week, and would love for it to be local. Do any of you have suggestions or recommendations?
Thanks so much,
M.

What can I do next?

Hi M.. I live in Wantage, and there is a phenomenal preschool up here. It's quite a trek for you, since it's up Route 284, but it's wonderful!! It's called White Horse Farms, and the director's name is Patty Kuchta. The number there is ###-###-####. My younger son went there, and is now in 2nd grade. He absolutely loved it, and was completely ready...and then some...for kindergarten. I highly recommend it!! It wouldn't hurt to just go take a look at it. =)

My kids went and goes to a wonderful preschool, Tinytown Preschool on 99 Demarest Road, near rt 94 and 15, about 10 minutes from Newton. They have no videotime, lots of creative play, projects,reading, and very gentle discipline. It's amazing how much stuff they make there and take home. My kids loves and loved the school and the teachers remember their former pupils.

The teachers have a lot of experience and have stayed with Tinytown for years and years. Their website is http://www.mytinytownpreschool.com and the phone number is ###-###-####. They have open registration Jan 23 and if you want a morning slot you need to be quick. Oh, the maximum number of kids in a class is 16, with two adults - a certified teacher and a teacher's aide.

I could go on and on - but check them out. I found their prices to be very reasonable compared to other preschools. Good luck with finding the best preschool for your kids.
