Payson Park Preschool

Love this little school!!! It's one of the only daycare/pre-k's that has outdoor space and a HUGE indoor area for kids to run and play. Plus, my kids have learned so much Spanish. So happy we found Payson Park.

We have been sending our son to Payson Park Preschool since this summer, and we absolutely love it here! Ms. Paula is so sweet and caring—our son adores her and always looks forward to going in, especially for water play, which he enjoys so much. Also, the director, Ms. Kumiko, is amazing. She is clearly passionate about children and runs the school so thoughtfully and smoothly. We really appreciate the daily photo updates which let us see what he's up to during the day. We had tried another school, but our son didn’t really enjoy there. We finally feel lucky and relieved to have our son here!

We have been with Payson Park Preschool for the past three years and they have become like a second family to us. Teachers truly care about the children and help them develop into the better selves. They are attentive to each child's personality and help them learn to communicate. Our son is excited to go to preschool in the morning and share with the teachers about his favorite toys or what he has done. We feel well prepared to go to kindergarten as Payson Park preschool taught age-relevant writing, reading, math skills. They also make time exciting and fun for kids. Payson park has a variety of enrichment activities. The preschool has indoor gym and outdoor playground. In summer they organize inflatable swimming pool. Teachers take kids for walks outside and go to the local library, park etc. They have Spanish and French classes, introduce kids to music, do science experiments and lots of arts and crafts. We love Payson Park Preschool and highly recommend them!!!

Our daughter has been at Payson for about 2 years, since she was 2 years old. The teachers are incredibly kind and attentive and the community is very supportive. They engage the kids in lots of fun activities, including music, science, and social emotional learning, and our daughter will be so prepared for kindergarten, both socially and academically, because of the learning she has done at Payson. The space is bright and welcoming, and I love that there is a large gym for them to run around when the weather is cold. I highly recommend!

Our son attended Payson Park Preschool for two years and we had a very positive experience. After our son's time at Payson Park Preschool, he moved seamlessly into Kindergarten in Belmont, due in large part to the solid educational and social foundation he received at Payson Park Preschool. We were impressed with the quality, care and commitment of the teachers, administrators and assistants at the school and the school's well-rounded programming, which included art, music and sports in addition to the core preschool curriculum. We met many lovely families during our time at the school; several of whom became lasting friends. We highly recommend the Payson Park Preschool program!
