What families have to say about us?

  • Melissa A.

    “As a parent, I’m constantly worrying if I’ve made the right decisions regarding my kids. I can say, without a doubt, that choosing @alphabetcooperativepreschool as our kids’ first school experience has been one of the best decisions. When Miss Jess heard that Liam was having a really rough transition to kindergarten, one of her first questions was, “When can I meet you to have lunch with him at school?”. Today, we got to surprise Liam and I can tell he felt so special.” Anyone who dedicates their time to a non-profit early education program is already a hero in my eyes…but someone like Miss Jess is a literal superhero. She truly loves her students like her own…even after they move on. Thanks for making Liam’s day, Miss Jess!

    “We love Alpha-Bet preschool and so does our three year old. Great community support and I love that the parents get to help in the classroom. The kids are encouraged to play and get dirty.”

  • Kristin S.

    “We adore the Alpha-Bet school! I was beyond hesitant to enroll my daughter in any type of preschool, I was definitely that parent who couldn’t imagine sending her anywhere before kindergarten. The cooperative program at Alpha-Bet is exactly what our family needed! A small family like approach to child care where the parents make the decisions makes you feel so safe. The teachers are god send and the most patient humans I’ve ever met. My little girl is loving her preschool and all the friendships she’s made! The children learn through play, and they are built up to have confidence in themselves and thrive to be the best they can. We are so happy to be part of the Alpha-Bet family!”

  • Jessica F.

    “I highly recommend Alpha-Bet Cooperative Preschool for hands-on parents! I appreciate the play-based curriculum with nature elements. I really enjoyed aiding in the classroom regularly, watching the children thrive at school and assisting in all the seasonal events. Miss. Jess and Miss. Porsha will treat your child like one of their own children, and treat you like a long-time friend. It’s a collaborative environment, in which teachers work with each child’s strengths and weaknesses, then communicate ideas and solutions to the parent. The teachers always start the day with a plan but understand the importance of pivoting when something isn’t working for an individual or the class. Children are given a safe place to play and are encouraged to get messy. Sometimes a spontaneous dance party is exactly what the children need. We are sad to go to kindergarten this fall because we will miss this MAGICAL place with our favorite teachers, best friends, and wonderful memories.”

  • Lisa O.

    “Being a part of Alpha-Bet was the perfect start to our children’s educational experience. We loved the community feel that Alpha-Bet promotes, giving parents a chance to connect with each other as well as the children. As a parent with early childhood education experience, I loved having the opportunity to get in the classroom with my children as a cooperative volunteer. I was also able to have a direct impact on the operations of the school by serving on the Board of Directors and participating in work days to help maintain the school facilities. The teachers really took the time to get to know each child and family and made it a very welcoming place for all.”

  • C. S.

    “Alpha-Bet is a great school! My daughter always enjoyed her time there and I always knew she was in excellent hands. The staff are very knowledgeable and the play-based environment was right up our alley. Mrs. Jesse is very nurturing and communicative, basically everything I wanted for my daughters preschool experience. As a cooperative preschool parents are very much involved and its nice to see what the children are learning/experiencing. I greatly enjoyed our time there and recommend this school to any family looking for a part time preschool.”

  • Liana M.

    “Alpha- bet preschool is a fabulous start for parents of 3 and 4 year Olds. Since it is cooperative, you are always involved and its a helpful transition from full time home to 1st time being away from home for 3 hours alone. The teachers are nurturing. My daughter faced so many of her fears and challenges in her 1 year at Alphabet and made so many friends in the neighborhood. I even made friends! I truly recommend Alpha-bet to parents who are looking for a great small private safe preschool that they can take part in with their children. There’s a reason they have been in business so long.”

  • Roger R.

    “Alpha-Bet Preschool was a wonderful experience for our family. My som was in attendance the year before the Covid pandemic. In 2021 he attended for a few months when group gathering restrictions eased. The time he spent at Alpha-Bet played a roll in how well he was able to adjust to kindergarten. He made new friends and was able find the ability to make friends with ease. Our family has also made new family to family connections that I am sure will last for years. I cannot thank the staff and parents at Alpha-bet enough. It was great to help out with the kids and see our child grow along side others in a positive learning environment.”

  • Brian C.

    “At the end of the school year, I can see the positive changes in my child after their experience at Alpha-Bet pre-school. I know my child is prepared for kindergarten and beyond.”
