Our Philosophy

We believe the values and skills learned early on are vital building blocks for quality of life. Because of the Y Preschool, kids have the opportunity to be creative, explore their environment, and develop problem-solving skills through self-discovery and teacher-assisted activities. At the Y, kids learn their ABCs, learn to share, learn sportsmanship, and most importantly, learn how to be themselves. Those qualities make for confident kids today and contributing and engaged adults tomorrow.

Our Teachers

You’ll find our staff serve as positive role models and provide care that is supportive, nurturing, warm and responsive to each child’s needs. Our teachers are dedicated to the learning process of young children and have Bachelor’s or Associate’s Degrees in Early Childhood Education.
