What Our Parents Say:

"As the parent of two children who have attended Loving Start Preschool, I can give it my highest recommendation. The program at Loving Start offered my children exactly what we were looking for in a preschool. The socialization and age-appropriate activities gave them the readiness skills needed to prepare them for the transition to kindergarten. The low student-to-teacher ratio allowed for plenty of individual attention and tender loving care. The teachers took time to get to know my children and met their needs as individuals. Their willingness to share an experience or offer insight was always welcome. I feel we were lucky to find Loving Start Preschool because my children benefited from this wonderful experience."
"I love how Loving Start integrates the best of Montessori, Waldorf and Reggio philosophies. The focus on developmental play, sensory exploration and child directed discovery makes LSP so special. The staff is so kind and knowledgeable. The class sizes are small, and kids get individual attention. The kids do yoga and music. There are special family nights and concerts. It's part of the Bay View neighborhood and welcomes students from different cultural backgrounds. I appreciate how the children are encouraged but not "pushed" to try new things"

"This is our first year with LSP but from the first moment we walked in on our tour I knew this was the place for us. The school is very much like a community and I think it was a better choice, for us, than going right into a larger school."
"Loving Start's play based curriculum has been very helpful for our son. He's learning while playing, which I think is so important at this young age. He is learning to have a positive view of education early in life. He is developing a love for learning."
"We were looking for somewhere our son would learn to love learning; we found that place in Loving Start. From the constantly changing play opportunities, neighborhood walking trips, and parent/child activities, we were very excited about the creative ways he learned about our world. He learned without knowing he was doing anything other than playing and being with friends. There was a natural progression from the 3 year old room to the 4 year old room. By the end of his second year at LSP, he was well prepared for kindergarten. Writing his name, rhyming, shapes, numbers... he knew all he needed to know."
