Approach to Learning
Our approach to learning is based on well-documented research in the field of Early Childhood Development that indicates that learning happens best for children when they are given the opportunity to actively explore their environment through learning centers, where there is a balance between teacher-directed and child-directed activities, and when instructional strategies are used to meet each individual child’s stage of development.
Educational Philosophy
The purpose of the weekday preschool is to provide quality care and instruction for preschool-age children so that we may support the children as they develop to their highest potential in physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual growth.
We are dedicated to supporting families and helping parents in the crucial years of child-rearing as each child is an individual, unique in his or her stage of development and learning style.
We will provide an outreach and witness to the community of the highest qualities of Christian faith, love, and social justice.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Winfree! We absolutely LOVE it! My daughter asks to go on days she isn’t scheduled to- which I feel says a lot. Their parent-teacher communication is outstanding. There are weekly lesson review emails, and daily pictures shared! The classrooms are fully equipped with rotating manipulatives, centers, toys, and crafts! It is evident how much love these teachers/staff have for these children. I have true peace when she is there. I know she is having fun, safe, and learning so much! Furthermore, Christ is at the center. They are certainly helping to build a strong, spiritual foundation. We are incredibly grateful, and over-the-moon concerning our entire experience here! We love Winfree!!!

What a wonderful preschool! The environment is warm and caring. My daughter's teachers are so dedicated and creative. I really like the way that snack time allows the children to try many fruits and vegetables each day - my daughter began to like broccoli here! Also, the before and after school options are so helpful for working parents. And, the extra classes like soccer and ballet were a great option to have available. I would highly recommend Winfree Preschool.
