Providence Preschool

Providence Preschool, founded in 1958, serves children ages 2-5 in a family-like community with a curriculum balancing indoor/outdoor play and structured learning. The program emphasizes child-centered development, social-emotional skills, and kindergarten readiness through creative activities, music, chapel, and garden exploration.

Children are known and loved in a safe environment with a thoughtful program. The school begins with the end in mind, establishing an educational foundation while fostering enthusiasm for learning. Teachers guide children in peer relationships, self-confidence, and independence through both structured and unstructured play experiences.

Outdoor

Most days students explore the Garden, an outdoor hands-on learning classroom where they dig, water, weed, and observe nature. Indoor and outdoor time are balanced throughout the day.

Chapel held twice weekly with worship songs and Biblically-based principles taught at developmentally-appropriate levels through Bible stories and children's literature. Teachers live Christ-centered lives.
