Wow, great list! I didn’t know there were so many school in that area to chose from.
What a fantastic list of preschools! It’s so helpful to have a place that comes recommended by another mom. If we hear of anyone who needs a preschool in the area, we will send them here.
This is a great list! For those of us the east side of town it often feels as though there are very few preschools to choose from but this is absolutely NOT the case! Our children attended The Sunshine Shack and I can’t say enough wonderful things about the school. The director’s philosophy about educating children just spoke to my heart and we fell in love with everything about the school.
And for those of you who may not know Christina Simon, do keep her blog link handy because she is an enormous wealth of information about private schools in LA. I credit her book and blog with helping us find the perfect fit elementary school!
