As an early childhood educator myself, I was very picky about where I would choose to send my child for his first school experience and I am beyond thrilled with NPS. from the beautifully and thoughtfully designed space (full of carefully chosen, open-ended toys) to the positive daily interactions with Marti, Yassi, and Ella, we have been so happy with the care and early education our son in receiving. Each teacher is warm, friendly educated, passionate, supportive, and approachable. They have dedicated their lives to caring for young children and it shows. The day is designed around what is best for young children and play is at the heart of everything they do. This place is truly magical and we feel so lucky to be a part of this community.
Sarah BaconDec 28, 2025We LOVE this preschool. Cannot recommend it enough! From the very first day, it was clear just how much Marti and Miss Ella pour their hearts into creating a warm, joyful, and high-quality environment for the kids. Their care is genuine and their energy is amazing. The play setups and toy rotations are beyond adorable. They are creative, interactive, and refreshed every single week. My son is excited every time he walks through the door, and it’s so fun to watch him light up with each new activity they thoughtfully prepare. We were committed to finding a school that would truly help our son grow, explore, and flourish. We feel so lucky to have found such a nurturing, engaging, and magical space for him.
Michelle MianDec 3, 2025We absolutely love NPS! From the very first day, the transition into school was seamless for both us and our child. We immediately felt like part of the family, every teacher is caring, warm, and truly invested. I trust them wholeheartedly with my kid and love that he is getting such a special introduction to learning. They go out of their way to explore and foster the kids natural curiosity and learning styles. And, create fun and engaging activities for the children throughout the year. The communication is excellent, the community-building events are incredible, and our child loves going to school (and asks to go every day!). We honestly can’t say enough wonderful things about NPS. It has been such a gift for our family. Highly recommend!
Maddie AlkhasNov 21, 2025My child loves this school and everything that comes along with it. The teacher’s are incredible. They truly care about the success of each child. The school is not close to our home but it is absolutely worth the drive and I would recommend that any family send their children here.
Kayla KoetterNov 7, 2025Our son attended NPS for caregiver-child and now preschool, we can’t recommend the school and the teachers highly enough! We have immense trust that the teachers are developing our son to be ready for kindergarten and beyond! It is a commitment for our family (driving from Berkeley) but we can’t imagine considering another school.
Ryan MillerNov 7, 2025Our son has attended NPS this year and has absolutely loved it. We were worried about his adjustment from home life to school, but the teachers and Marti made the transition seamlessly. Within 2 days, he was running off into class. The classroom is stunning and clean, and they are always moving things around to refresh the activities that the children get to play with. The environment is small and the attention to each child is truly remarkable. Our son loves going everyday. We are truly grateful for NPS!
