Bright Beginnings Preschool

As a co-op, we utilize the talents, experience, and financial contributions of our families, coupled with paid, professional staff to ensure the smooth operation of the co-op and to enhance each family's experience. Families have the opportunity to be involved in a variety of ways that enable them to share in the operation and direction of the organization at a level that fits with their family circumstance.

Bright Beginnings Co-op offers three programs - Infant/Toddler, Preschool and Enrichment. Our goal is to support families through the spectrum of stages in early childhood with class options that meet the needs of families and children from newborns through school-age.

Our Infant/ Toddler program provides classes for families and their children from newborns up to turning 3. Classes introduce children to peer interaction, child-led exploration and problem solving; with many classes incorporating parent education and support for families.The first 30-minutes of this class provides an opportunity for peer interaction, socialization, and support with the families of the mobile infants/young toddler class.

I have worked in the field of early childhood for nearly thirty years in a variety of capacities-nanny, preschool teacher, infant caregiver, program coordinator, and Program Director. I have a BA in Early Childhood Education Administration and a Master's Degree in Early Childhood Studies. In addition to serving at Bright Beginnings as Director, I teach early childhood education courses at Sacramento City College.

Enrollment for the next Trimester begins in November. Learn about us: Read about our philosophy and values, membership requirements, and class offerings.
