We offer 5 days a week from 8:30am to 1:30pm, with extended hours until 3:00pm for ages 2yrs to 6yrs or First grade. We celebrate diversity - we believe that life on planet earth is about celebrations and joy, we encourage parents to share their festivities and culture and enrich our Heffalump family. We are blessed to have had children from Japan, Russia, China, Israel, India, Korea, Turkey, Ukraine, Spain, China, Germany, France, Italy, Argentina, Brazil, England.
Our unique program " Child First" & incorporates a variety of educational theories, while always keeping the child’s best interest in mind and allowing for hands-on, experiential learning through art, music, gardening and joy/laughs and silliness. Our preschool offer bright classrooms and a huge private kids garden and play structure and playgrounds. Your child will feel safe, get plenty of love, and develop a love for learning through our unique approach to care.
All teachers have CA ECE degree, 15 plus yrs experience, CRP/first aid trained. We follow county COVID protocols at all time.
With love and gratitude we look forward to having your child be a part of Heffalump family.
