Apple Blossom Bunch Prek In The Park

Pre K in the Park is the most wonderful preschool program. Heather creates an environment of natural elements, play, and childhood joy. She inspires individual comfort and confidence with learning, social skill building, outdoor play, art, music, and field trips around town. We have absolute trust in Pre K in the Park to provide a safe, supportive environment for our boys. It is simply the best experience one could ask for for a preschool. Thank you, Mrs. Heather and all the wonderful teachers who have done so much for our boys.

Pre-k in the Park has been everything we had hoped for in finding a preschool for our children! With my wife being an occupational therapist specializing in early education we sought out many alternatives: all with their pro's and con's. What's great about Mrs. Heather's approach is her unique ability to incorporate so many great pieces from non-traditional and traditional sources in a harmonious and balance approach that allows each individual to thrive and fell as if their needs are being fully met while engaging with their social peers and the local community alike. Truly a terrific and formative experience that we are lucky to be a part of.

My daughter is on her second year at Pre-K in the Park and I can’t express the gratitude and love we have for Mrs. Heather along with the other teachers she has. Her program is incredibly fulfilling for our daughter and Heather has such a beautiful way of solving problems whether it be drop off troubles, conflicts between the children, or even talking through problems you may have at home with your child. She encourages a strong path to starting school and keeps the kids engaged. One of the best parts of her program is the opportunities she takes to be outside with the children in all weather (of course with in reason) at the playground and to introduce them to new experiences around beautiful Saratoga. There’s no doubt in my mind that Pre-K in the Park was the best choice and we will be sending son there in the fall.

I cannot say enough good things about Heather’s pre-k program. I have sent both of my children here and have been in awe of her unique approach to learning. She fully prepares each child for kindergarten and emphasized social emotional learning in her daily lessons. The program has a big emphasis on nature and she gets the kids outside in all types of weather. The other great aspect of her approach is taking the classroom outdoors by embarking on numerous walking field trips. It reminds me so much of Mr Roger’s Neighborhood ! The class takes trips to the fire station, police department, post office, bike store, music lessons and other local businesses around town. Heather has decades of experience and is flexible in her approach to meet the needs of each student. I think Heather’s balance of academics, play, nature, and social emotional learning is what sets this program apart from most pre schools.

We love Miss Heather and Pre-K in the Park so very much. The new location is so bright and lovely and it’s everything a kiddo could want and need in a Pre-K setting. Pre-K in the Park is more than a classroom, it’s a community. Our little buddy will miss it so much next year but he will be well prepared for Kindergarten.
