Old Adobe School

My son is 2 and loves it here. He is genuinely happen to hear its a preschool day. Once he gets there its like my husband I don’t exist. They have an amazing play area with lots of shade. The ²⁄₃ room has TONS of windows and an additional fenced outdoor area. The side has tables all set up with projects for the kids, there is a train table, a reading nook, a play loft and more. What a magical place. We are so happy we came here. Another poster said they knew the moment they stepped inside they had found the right place, we felt exactly the same.

We moved from San Francisco to Sonoma as my daughter turned two. I had no preconceived notions of preschools in the area and visited practically every one. As a mom I looked for a warm and loving atmosphere. As a pediatric occupational therapist it was important to me that the learning experiences be age-​appropriate, multi-​sensory, based in knowledge of early childhood development, and fun! I knew when I toured that this was the place. My daughter has been there over a year and I’m routinely impressed with the creativity, projects, and activities. There’s lots of music, art, science and gross/​fine motor play. I have confidence that my daughter is truly cared for and she has a ball. Also, the communication is great. I get photos a newsletter, and emails keeping me informed. The teachers are wonderful and they’re very flexible. With a little advanced notice they can usually accommodate extra hours which is a nice perk. My daughter is thriving at Old Adobe School – I highly recommend it!

We moved from NY to Sonoma, CA and finding schools for my two boys was no easy task. There were many pre schools to choose from. I did research and we visited this one before we moved and knew it was the right place for our 4 year old the moment we stepped inside. It is a warm, well loved school. The creativity that happens here is amazing. They do art every day, which happens to be my son’s favorite activity. He is now writing really well too, after 4 months here. There are two classrooms, one for pre-​schoolers, mostly art and play based activities and one for pre-​kindergarteners which has more structure. There is early drop off and after school options for working parents. The classrooms change every day into different play stations, keeping the kids interested. The playground is wonderful, with a full climb on area, plus a huge sand box, tire swing, outdoor toys galore and all the ride on toys you could ever want including plasma cars, trikes and balance bikes. My son comes home with projects every day, and is very happy here. We could not be happier either.
