Whether it’s what they see, hear, smell, feel, or taste, children are constantly figuring out the world around them.
Fort Erie Co-operative Preschool provides a safe, stimulating space for them to do it.
We’re not a daycare. Our program is designed to introduce your child to the concept of going to school so when they do start kindergarten, they have a solid foundation in place to help them make the transition.
Preschool is the perfect place for your son or daughter if they are:
- Between the ages of 24 months and 6 years old
- Full of energy and ready to make new friends
- Curious, active, and love to try new things
- Ready for more independence
Studies have shown children benefit in many ways from a quality early childhood education, including better developed social skills, a stronger performance in elementary school, and improved attention spans.
Educators who teach children that have attended our preschool often compliment us on our program because they receive children who understand and are prepared for the school system.
If you’ve been looking for an alternative to traditional daycare or you’ve been looking for a quality preschool program in the Greater Fort Erie area, we invite you to take a tour of our learning centre.

Our Philosophy
We believe children learn about the world by interacting with it. We provide opportunities for your little one to explore and discover new things every day through imaginative, associative, and co-operative play. Our program is 100% play-based and child-led. We let their imaginations and interests guide us!
