from 9:30am-11:30am; M, T, W, or Th

Children’s Program

Your child’s Preschool Teacher provides an enriching environment just right for young children to explore and learn.

  • Just imagine your child splashing in the water table, making messy art, building with blocks, playing with trains, sitting for a healthy snack, joining friends to climb, dance, and sing!
  • Some children are not ‘toddling’ when they begin school, but they will be soon enough!

Parent Education & Support

Parent, grandparent, nanny, or other special adult attends with their child and is automatically enrolled in the South Seattle College Parent Education program.  Your Parent Educator is there in class each week, checking in individually and leading a discussion group to provide the latest in child development and guidance.

  • Just imagine talking about tantrums, picky eaters, midnight wakers, furniture climbers, brain growth, language development, and more with other people who understand and a parent educator who has tips to help! 
  • Adults learn tips about interacting with all the children – and see how their own child is learning to be with other little ones.
  • Grown-ups start building their own parenting support system and making connections with other families.

Parent Involvement

As a member of this Co-op, the adult commitment is: 

  • Attend class one day each week, working alongside the Children’s Teacher interacting with the children … or alternating every week into Discussion Group with the Parent Educator.
  • Attend an evening Class Meeting, once per quarter to learn about guidance and discipline to use at home and at school…and have an adult night out together!  
  • Choose and hold a preschool job that fits your interests, skill, and time (i.e. Community Builder, Class Treasurer, Play-Dough Maker, Librarian)
  • Choose one quarterly parent education seminar from a variety of topics such as: Sleep, Sibling Relationships, Guidance & Discipline, Raising an Only Child, Potty Training, Picky Eating, Anti-bias Parenting, and many more!

Because this is a family program, other adults—grandparents, nannies, aunties, etc.– are welcome to attend and help fulfill these commitments.
