★★★★★Kavita PaigeRe The Hangout: Can’t begin to explain how great these folks are. My kiddo is not a fan of regular after care clubs but she has found her courage and confidence in expressing her creative skills in ways beyond her imagination! Not to mention she’s made new friends and learned from some wonderful humans and talented teachers. As for us the parents, Katie and her amazing staff have been so flexible and accommodating to us when we’re in a pinch! So much love for the Hangout community xxxx
★★★★★Stephan FerreiraThe team at PPOTA is incredibly caring, patient, and engaged with the kiddos. And they're also super communicative and fun! Bonus with frequent and extra field trips, special holiday parties with the kids, and community events.
★★★★★Kelsey FerreiraMy son attended PPOTA for preschool. It's a space filled with joy, creativity, and the most caring teachers. I could not be happier with my child's progress in making new friends, learning how to express himself, and having fun learning. PPOTA is also centered on creating community, hosting events and special programs throughout the year that really foster a sense of belonging. Highly recommend this gem of a preschool!
★★★★★Mory JahangirNice little place as a play school for young children. They have lots of art supplies and toys. There are two rabbits that children can watch or feed. The cost for the first child is $12 and for the second child is $8. Adults and children under one are free.
★★★★★Kirstin CosperI was lucky enough to have both my son finish up his preschooling here and my daughter now attend this wonderful school. Teacher Emrie is warm and fun with a knack for drawing out the creative side of little ones. Her play-based approach with a focus on art and exploring the sensory world gives children the space they need to develop their own natural curiosities. I can't recommend this school enough!
