A play-based, nature-inspired environment building strong, confident, and happy children setting sail for a bright future. At Coastal Community Preschool, we believe children learn best in a warm, welcoming, safe, and vibrant community where their ideas are respected, their motives trusted, and their needs are met to the fullest extent possible.
In addition to creating and maintaining this environment, we are committed to fostering a sense of community by facilitating shared experiences that engage intellect, emotion, and senses, encouraging children to reflect on these together. By focusing on the child as both an individual and vital community member, our goal is to help develop a sense of belonging and self-respect, as well as respect and compassion for others.

Report
I was born and raised in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Right after getting married, my husband and I moved to Colorado for about a year and a half. Although we loved the Rockies and the snow, nothing beats Santa Cruz and all the beauty around here. I have a son, Isaac, who attends CCP and a daughter who was born in March of 2020.

We rotate weeks doing circle time. One teacher will lead the circle doing songs, stories, movement, games, and or a flannel story while the other provides circle support. As lunch finishes up children use the bathroom/ diaper change then head to the side deck for some play before our rest story. All children rest on their mats until 1:30.
