We provide a quality preschool experience in a loving aND fu

I am the owner and primary teacher at Play With Me Preschool. I have been in the child development field since 2002 and hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in Child Development from California State University, Sacramento. I am certified in CPR and have also completed the state nutrition guidelines training and state licensing program. I have two children of my own and two grandbabies! I opened Play With Me Preschool because I love children and I love teaching. I promise to nurture your child as if he or she was my own.

Why Have A Preschool In My Home?

While finishing school, it was a dream of mine to operate my own preschool.  Operating a preschool in my home provides a flexible, comfortable, loving home environment with the structure and routine that a typical preschool provides.

My Philosophy
I believe that all children deserve love, attention, and nurturing. I believe that a safe environment allows children to explore and grow. At Play With Me Preschool, we allow children to have hands-on learning experiences. This fosters age appropriate development. We read to the children and listen to their questions. We believe that positive reinforcement is important for children to develop self-esteem. Children need an environment that supports free expression and stimulates learning. Most importantly, however, I believe that children need to have fun! At Play With Me Preschool, we have learning groups, celebrate with parties, field trips, investigations, dramatic play outdoor activities, and play lots of exciting games! Children learn best from experiencing the world around them in a safe and loving environment.

Quality Preschool Site
At Play With Me Preschool we have earned a Tier 5 Rating  for several years in a row with Raising Quality Together: Sacramento County's Quality Rating and Improvement System. This is a voluntary program focused on creating uniform standards of quality for early learning programs.  We are proud of this rating and have worked hard to earn it with strict observation systems and continued professional growth for all teachers.

We are also an approved Community Mentor site for the California Early Childhood Mentor Program.  We have practicum students enrolled in Early Childhood Education courses through Los Rios Community College that assists students in completion of their final practicum courses. You can be assured that practicum students bring fresh and exciting activities to our program while being guided in a hands on learning atmosphere. Again, this was a strict application process that includes continued professional development and this achievement helps our environment build leadership in the Early Education field.  To learn more visit https://cecmp.org.
