About the Program:
Ashcreek Playschool teaches foundational life skills, nurturing curiosity, creativity and kindness through play-based learning. We believe preschool-aged children learn and grow best through child-led play both in the classroom and outside. Research on brain development and early childhood education shows that providing opportunities for open-ended play and child-directed activities is one of the most natural and effective ways for young children to learn and develop life skills. Operating as a non-profit parent cooperative, parents work together, dedicating their time and talents, and serving as teacher assistants to provide children with a wide range of experiences and a strong backbone of support.
Toilet Independence Requirements:
Children in the Mixed Age class are expected to be potty trained and able to use the toilet with minimal or no assistance. Children in the 2's classroom should be in the process of potty training but are not expected to be fully potty trained.
