The Story
Our focus is the whole child, emphasizing each child's overall growth including social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development. This primary teaching philosophy is based on the work of Jean Piaget, a Swiss philosopher and developmental psychologist.
We lay the foundation for social adaptability, creative achievement, the ability to take on cognitive challenges, and a joy of learning.
In continuous operation since 1956, Tamalpais Strawberry Preschools have the distinction of being among the oldest independent preschools in Marin County. While our schools are nonsectarian, each was built cooperatively with the church in which it's housed.
Our teachers are trained in Early Childhood Education and participate in regular in-service training, workshops and seminars.
We hold fun gatherings throughout the year such as our back-to-school lemonade social, parent coffees, Halloween Festival, Parents’ Night Out, a spring party at the park and group play dates. We adapt our events to meet the needs of our community in the hopes of creating lifelong friendships for our students and their families.
