Welcome!

Our Mission

Preschool is an experience to be shared in joy and camaraderie by both children and parents. We believe learning is rooted in a child's confidence and sense of self. Play based learning provides the foundation for each child's learning journey by empowering exploration through play with intentional guidance.

In this way, we promote a love of learning through the age-appropriate development of each child socially, emotionally, physically, and academically. Every child is valued, respected, and celebrated at Weems Creek Nursery School.

What parents are saying…

“Truly a hidden gem! The teachers and staff are all so wonderful, caring and invested. I couldn’t ask for a better experience for my children. We are starting our third child at Weems next year and she already can’t wait. Such a wonderful community of families that become friends.
