THROUGH HANDS-ON EXPERIENCES

We encourage self-directed play – this gives children the opportunity to hone decision-making and planning skills, and vastly increases their attention spans.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

         THIS SCHOOL IS A PRECIOUS GEM AMONGST THE MULTITUDE OF PRESCHOOLS ON THE WESTSIDE.

From the moment you walk through the gates, you are transported to a magical world of art, music, dance and endless creativity. Each festival in the multicultural curriculum is a culmination of purposeful, breathtakingly beautiful art projects, authentic songs and meaningful stories. The children are treated with such tenderness, love and positivity, setting them on a path of strong social emotional development and self-expression. It has been simply amazing for me to watch my girls thrive in this environment and we feel so blessed to have been a part of this exceptional community.

— Madhuri Inamdar

         WE TRULY BELIEVE THAT LITTLE DOLPHINS’ ART-FORWARD APPROACH BEST NURTURES A CHILD’S PASSION FOR LEARNING...

... by allowing for open-ended exploration and validation.
The faculty pursues education with thoughtfulness and passion, but also engages with love.

— Martha Tian

          THE GIFTED TEACHERS & STAFF ARE TRANSFORMING YOUNG LIVES FOR A LIFETIME OF LEARNING & GROWTH.

There is magic happening everyday at Little Dolphins. The magic begins from the time the children pass through the gates – their little bodies seemingly always in motion, running, jumping, climbing, filling the schoolyard with energy and laughter. Having attended a number of the programs whose rich themes celebrate a diversity of cultures and customs, we’ve been witnesses to our grandchildren's ever-growing sense of wonder and expanding love of learning. We are so grateful for the magic and joy we've get to share with our grandchildren, Kalen and Barrett. Thank you, Little Dolphins Preschool!

— Bachan and Poppa, Little Dolphins Grandparents.
