Is Preschool in Your Family's Future?
It may seem like only yesterday that you were gazing in awe at your newborn, then waiting for that first word, first step, first everything. If finding a perfect place for your child's first school experience is now on your to-do list, we hope that our annual preschool directory can help you get started.

The Lamorinda Weekly (LW) Preschool Guide is not paid advertising; our intent is to provide a useful reference guide. We hope that we have included all Lamorinda Preschools on this page. LW is not liable for errors or omissions. In the event that we have inadvertently printed misinformation or excluded a preschool please let us know (info@lamorindaweekly.com) so that we may correct our list for the next time. Thank you to those preschools who helped to fund our efforts to create this service to the community.
