Our founders, administration and staff are committed to serving each child’s individual needs and providing the highest quality in early childhood education. In 1983 Dan and Pauline Condrick founded Carmel Mountain Preschool to fill the need for a preschool in the new and growing community of Rancho Peñasquitos. They envisioned a warm, caring, fun atmosphere where children could develop a love for learning. As the community grew, so did the school and in 1986 an additional ten classrooms were built. The preschool continues to grow, not in physical size, but in the number of CMP graduates who go on to succeed both academically and personally. Situated on 3 beautiful acres, our school offers plenty of space for your child to explore, learn and grow. You’ll find that our staff, and classrooms work together in providing the best programs to support and enhance each child’s social, emotional, physical and intellectual development. And you will find that your child will have fun!

Outdoor play is full of movement, noise, and stimulation. For most preschoolers, that’s part of the fun, but sometimes a child needs the opposite: less noise, less activity, and a little space to regroup. The Outlast Haven by Community Playthings is designed to provide just that, a quiet outdoor space where children can take a sensory break, calm their bodies, or have a moment to themselves while remaining connected to the outdoor environment.

CMP has been lucky enough to have the Outlast Haven on our play yards for several months. For our staff, it offers another tool for teaching self-regulation and independence. For our children, it is a quiet little space where they can breathe, observe their friends, and feel ready to join the play again.

Risk play can begin at a young age, as soon as toddlers become more comfortable with their movements and eager to explore their surroundings. By promoting these experiences in a safe manner, we help them build confidence, enhance their risk-assessment skills, and improve their gross motor skills and balance.
