Culturally diverse Part-time preschool in El Cerrito/Albany?

August 2009

We are looking for a culturally diverse pre school for our almost 2-year-old son. Most of the ones we have heard of don't allow you to sign up for part time. Ideally it would be a place where he could go 3-4 hours a day a few days a week. Any ideas? D

You should check out Skytown Preschool. It's in the region of the El Cerrito hills. They have a toddler (2's) room and it is a fantastic school...my son went there and loved it! It is a coop, but you can buy out of whatever you don't want to do... http://skytown.org/ Happy Skytown Mama
For a culturally diverse, loving and nurturing environment, I am happy to recommend Rising Sun Montessori on the El Cerrito/Albany border near Memorial Park. My son enjoyed his two years there very much, meeting friends from India, Brazil and Venezuela. His teachers, Carolina and Reina, also incorporated Spanish words and phrases into their daily routine. My son attended school three days per week for a full day, though many children came for shorter times - until 12:30 and some until 3:00pm. Rising Sun is a very happy place and the children really enjoy the very large yard with a log cabin playhouse, swingset, sandbox and veggie garden. Their number is 510-528-6041.

Programs for 2-year-olds in Oakland area?

May 2003

My daughter is not even one but I expect I should get her on the wait list for some good two year old programs soon... I'll need care 2 -3 full days per week. We live in Temescal so Rockridge, North Oakland, Montclair, Piedmont, South Berkeley are preferable. If you can wholeheartedly recommend a place please let us know! Thanks

    Parent/child programs for 2-year-olds?

    Feb 2003

    I'm looking for a program which my 2-year old and I can attend together in order to have fun and make social contacts. My son isn't yet in preschool, so we have been making the rounds of Gymboree, MusicTogether, Kindergym and KinderMusik. Although we have enjoyed these classes, I think my son is ready for a program that is longer in duration than these classes and will offer him a greater variety of activities. Any recommendations would be appreciated! Mom of a Bored Toddler

    Part-time program for 2.5 year old

    October 2001

    I am looking for a preschool for my daughter to start in September, 2002. I would like her to attend 3-4 morning per week, in Oakland. She will 2 yrs. 6 mos. old in September and many of the schools require 2 yrs. 9 mos, or are full day programs. I would love a year-round school but that is not a necessity. I am looking for developmental schools only and am not interested in Montessori schools. I looked on the website and did not find exactly what I am looking for.
