Preschools using the Reggio Emilia Approach

Berkeley Parents Network > Reviews > Preschools > Preschools using the Reggio Emilia Approach

June 2002

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows of a preschool that uses the Reggio Emilia approach. I have been reading about it and am quite intrigued. Thanks Kelsie

The Old Firehouse School on Moraga Road in downtown Lafayette follows the Reggio Emiglia approach. They take kids from infancy through preschool age, and have both part-time and full- time programs. You can reach them at 925-284-4321. The director is Dorothy Stewart. Sharon
I think Via Nova uses Reggio Emilia, at least in part.

I heard Aquatic Park Preschool billed themselves as Reggio Emilia inspired.

Other recommendations:

  • Association of Children's Services (AOCS)
  • Hearts Leap Preschool
  • Mills College Children's School

    I've been checking out preschools and reading the archives but still can't find what I'm looking for. Can anyone recommend a school that has a lot of free play and creative activities, but accompanied by very serious teacher facilatation? (a la Reggio Emilia). I also want only three full days, and I'm a graduate student so price is an issue. My child is three and I'm looking for the Fall. Thanks for any ideas you might have. Ilona
