About this preschool

Teacher's Pet is a preschool and afterschool program serving children from age 2 through 5th grade in Eureka, California, operating since 1980. The school offers toddler, preschool, and afterschool classes with flexible scheduling options.

Philosophy
Our goal is to provide a safe, nurturing environment for children to grow and learn. We work to help children feel confident in their abilities as well as find success when they eventually enter an elementary school classroom. Since each child's social/emotional development is equally important, we provide many opportunities for free play with teacher supervision and guidance.
