Bel Air Presbyterian Preschool

Area is congested with too many school with terrible access, no emergency plan for the area. The school will bring the kids to the tiny parking lot and have them sit and inhale smoke while LAFD tries to get past 405 traffic and panicked parents. \r Not safe and they apparently don't have a valid permit to be there either. more

What a fantastic school! I was very lucky to find Bel Air Presbyterian Preschool when we moved to Los Angeles in 2007. The school is warm, nurturing, creative - Reminds me of the preschool I attended as a child. There is a real focus on individuality and cultivating a sense of self. Learning to get along with one's peers is a priority as well. There are so many great teachers who truly care about the kids (It's not just a job to them) and there are many different subjects taught in relatable ways. Each day is full of art, music, science, reading/writing, dramatic play....and yet nothing is forced on the kids (no sitting at desks, memorizing) Spanish, yoga, gardening and soccer are a part of the afternoon enrichment program for the older preschoolers. There are several playgrounds with different themes (Each age group rotates throughout the day) and the campus is small enough to feel warm and inviting, yet big enough to have all the resources one would want. I can't say enough about this school - Truly wonderful! more
