About
Report
At Brooklyn Preschool, we offer a supportive, play-based environment where children can explore the world around them in their own way. Open-ended activities allow students to engage with other children and make choices about their work and play. Our focus on problem-solving skills helps children become self-directed in their activities and supports preventative discipline.

Brooklyn Preschool's nursery program benefits our members with babies and toddlers. Siblings of Brooklyn students who are not yet age-eligible for preschool can go to our on-site nursery during their family's parent-teaching shifts. Our CPR and first-aid-certified nursery provider of 5 years has been a member of our community since her own children attended Brooklyn.
Open House
Report
Our annual Open House typically occurs the first Saturday in February from 9:30 and 11:30am. Visitors are free to come and go at their convenience. Kids can explore activities and play in our indoor and outdoor spaces while parents meet our teachers and visit with current families. This is a great opportunity to get first-hand answers to all your questions about the world of preschool and joining the co-op community!
Membership
Report
A co-op is a member-run organization. A cooperative preschool has both requirements and benefits that aren't always found in a traditional preschool environment. Becoming a member of a cooperative preschool requires a commitment of time and energy to the school, in addition to paying monthly tuition.
