Westwood Hills Preschool, Los Angeles

At Westwood Hills Preschool, we are committed to honoring the early years in a child's life. We recognize how crucial these years are to later learning. We believe that each child should experience an environment that promotes independent thinking, problem solving, and self-esteem.Our goal is to provide a warm, safe, loving atmosphere where children can thrive. A child's interest ignites when he or she is provided with ideas that extend thinking, developing the desire to explore and foster creative outlets. We incorporate these interests into curriculum that becomes part of our emergent way of learning. The role of our teachers is to help foster development in problem solving, socialization, curiosity, critical thinking, and self-help skills. Most importantly, our curriculum is designed to allow self-discovery and a strengthening of each child's unique individuality. Within our safe environment, children are allowed to challenge their skills at a pace that is comfortable and successful.Our community is interwoven with many activities that promote parent participation. This allows our families to be active participants in their children's school life.
