At
Michael Lane Preschool we learn to play and play to
learn!
Nestled in the beautiful hills of Lafayette, we provide
an inviting, secure and non-critical preschool
environment for children to grow and develop through
supervised play. Our child centered program is built on
a solid base of trust between teachers, children and
families while providing a supportive and educational
community for both children and parents.
Each
child is accepted and valued as a unique individual that
is allowed and encouraged to develop at their own pace.
We promote each child’s social, physical and cognitive
growth while sharing the wonder of learning through an
emergent curriculum of play activities. We work to have
each child, regardless of age, learn from the other
children, value their gifts and develop a positive
attitude toward school and learning. We believe that
when children share positive experiences with other
children, they grow and develop both socially and
academically.
We are proud to be
accredited by the
NAEYC
(National Association for the Education of Young
Children). |

comfortable in the preschool environment, learn to play
cooperatively, and develop the self-confidence they need

develop self-expression, improve language skills, make
