About this preschool

Peter Pan Preschool serves children from 6 weeks to 5 years of age in Alameda, California. The school emphasizes a play-based, child-centered curriculum focused on nurturing development across social, emotional, physical, cognitive, and creative domains.

Philosophy
The program is based on accepting children as they are, placing them in a warm and loving environment to encourage them to attain their full potential. Each child is treated as a unique individual. Learning and development occur through play and discovery, not as direct goals. The school believes that play builds brains, and children learn best through hands-on, interactive experiences.
