What Our Families Say

Some of my earliest childhood memories are from my time as a preschooler at Northaven Co-op. Quick, vivid snapshots: Having my face painted at the Great Pumpkin Carnival, singing crisscross apple sauce at circle time, proudly watching my parent lovingly prepare the classroom snack when it was their turn to co-op. Fast forward a generation, and I’m re-living those precious memories with my daughters, as now it’s their turn to discover and grow in this safe, nurturing environment that welcomes everyone. This is the incredible legacy of Northaven Co-operative Preschool. An extension of home where memories and friendships are made that will last a lifetime.
