From the moment we walked in the door, Miss Tara and Miss Tammy have gone above and beyond to make us feel welcome and a part of the Westminster family. From daily communications, field trips, class parties, volunteer opportunities, and so much more, I have had several opportunities to be involved in my daughter\u2019s education. The love that Miss Tara pours into each and every student is evident in my daughter&#8217;s face everyday at pick up and drop off. As a parent there is nothing more I could ask for! I am so grateful for all the skills my daughter has learned this year, and I have no doubt she is more than ready for kindergarten!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">~Ashley S.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Our daughter had a fantastic, well-rounded experience in both the 3 year and 4\/5 year old programs at Westminster. Both years, the programs provided age appropriate foundational academic skills while also helping our child build self-esteem and learn effective social skills. We were extremely pleased with all aspects of the program and could not recommend it enough!&nbsp;<br>~Erin D.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">I absolutely recommend Westminster Preschool as one of the best choices for preschool education in our community. Having personally witnessed the remarkable growth and development of our daughter during her time at Westminster, I have no doubt that it is a nurturing and enriching environment for young learners.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">What truly sets Westminster apart is their commitment to building a strong educational foundation while fostering creativity, exploration, and a love for learning. Miss Tara and Miss Tammy go above and beyond to ensure each child&#8217;s unique needs are met. The curriculum at Westminster is age appropriate and engaging, designed to provide a balance between play-based learning and structured activities. Their emphasis on empathy, teamwork, and self-confidence ensures that children not only excel academically but also develop their social skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The facilities at Westminster are exceptional, with a clean and safe environment that encourages exploration and learning. The classrooms are bright, spacious, and filled with thoughtfully selected educational materials and resources.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Our daughter consistently looked forward to her time at Westminster and truly loved her teachers, peers, and learning environment. I wholeheartedly recommend Westminster to any parent seeking a nurturing, stimulating, and high-quality preschool experience for their child. The dedicated staff, comprehensive curriculum, and commitment to child growth and development make it an outstanding choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">~Katie R.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to Westminster United Presbyterian Preschool!
