Westminster Cooperative Preschool

This Memorial Day, we are grateful for all the soldiers who work to serve our country- especially some of our students’ favorite people!

Every year we are amazed by how much our students have grown! From the first day of school to the last, they pack every day with joy, silliness, learning, and fun.

If you think your child might be ready for a play-based preschool that puts the magic and curiosity of childhood first, send us a message today! We have openings in our 2-day and 4-day programs.

Tune in today at 12:40 and at 10:40pm to listen to our director, Meleah Berkowitz, talk play-based curriculum and Kindergarten readiness!

Not quite sure if your little one is ready for Kindergarten? We would love to talk to you about our play-based curriculum, and all the ways we can help prepare your child for Kindergarten success!

At WCP, we love to celebrate all the special people in our students’ lives!

We know that families are a crucial part of a child’s education, and that when teachers and families work closely together, children can truly shine.

On this Mother’s Day weekend, we want to send a big “Wish Well” sparkle to all of the families and friends who love and support our little learners! ✨

Look at our alumni shine! 🌟

We’re so proud of Hannah, a Westminster Cooperative Preschool graduate who is now making a difference as a childcare specialist. Her passion for nurturing and supporting young children started right here in our classrooms, and it’s amazing to see it come full circle.

At WCP, we don’t just prepare children for kindergarten, we help plant the seeds for a lifelong love of learning and caring for others. 💚

Sometimes life imitates art- especially with Shel Silverstein and silly preschoolers!

Students at WCP love to be silly with their friends, and they also love all kinds of reading. From Pete the Cat to Where the Sidewalk Ends to The Very Hungry Caterpillar, books are one of the most fun ways that our kids learn about the world around them.

If you have a curious and silly toddler looking for their next adventure, WCP might be the perfect fit for you! We are currently enrolling for our 2026-2027 school year- message us today to learn more!
