Welcome to Mill Valley’s Only Parent Participation Preschool

Our Guiding Principles

Play-Based

Through joyful learning and collaborative play, our program focuses on the development of the whole child: physical, cognitive, and social-emotional. We offer a vibrant and nurturing learning community committed to child-led exploration, creativity, and collaboration.

Parent Participation

We believe parents are valuable contributors to the educational process, bringing their unique perspectives and insights. At MVNS, children, teachers, and families work together to foster a sense of community and mutual support.
