Carlmont Parents Nursery School


Play-Based Enriching Preschool

CPNS is a parent participation, co-operative, play-based developmental preschool for children ages 2 to 6 years.

60 Years of Experience

Located in Belmont, CA, and founded in 1961, we are a community of children, parents, and teachers working together with the common goal of stronger, healthier families.

We believe that the well-being of children, their senses of self, their values and their perspectives on the world are all greatly shaped by those charged with their care.

Programs

Our children’s program is designed to provide a gradual and smooth transition into formal education. When children learn at their own pace through guided exploration and experimentation, in a safe and loving environment, full of developmentally appropriate activities, their discoveries are boundless.

Open-ended exploration allows children time and space to develop skills by playing, tinkering, practicing, experiencing both success and failure, and reflecting on their own thinking.
