Where the natural love of learning matters

Supporting education and innovation.

Bell's School is a 5-star rated, year-round preschool serving children ages 2-6


Our school was founded in 1978 on the principle that children develop at different rates. Therefore, individualized teaching is a necessity. We use many different philosophies in our approach for daily learning. The Montessori and Reggio Emilia concepts are incorporated, as well as our own Michaux Method™.

We stand out.

  • Our daughter has been here since she could walk and we love the school so much. She gets great attention and education from her teachers who love her every single day. Best parenting decision I’ve ever made to bring my daughter to Bells!

  • The ratios of kids to adults is phenomenal, the lesson plans are thoughtful and flexible, and our kiddo has absolutely blossomed intellectually. She comes home volunteering things she learns each day and loves her teachers. We genuinely love the philosophy, the director and the teachers! We will be sad when the time comes for us to move on.

  • Our daughter began her Bell's journey at 2 years old. Every minute of her time there has been a lovely experience for the whole family. The only downside is that she couldn't start sooner and will one day have to leave!

  • Bell's School is a wonderful place, and the teachers and the administration truly care about the children. They go out of their way to help the little ones develop at a natural pace. They also go out of their way to work with parents and honor any reasonable request asked of them.

  • We have loved having our boys at Bell’s School. Our oldest son was never excited to go to our previous daycare center. However, even on the very first day at Bell’s, our son came home wanting to ‘play school’ and show us all about circle time and the different ‘helper’ roles. Our kids get so excited for things like ‘yoga day’ or a visitor coming to read stories. The teachers are incredibly caring and engaged with the children. I often pick up our kids and see the teachers putting together a puzzle or playing a game with them. The small class sizes give them the opportunity to develop personal relationships with the children. We appreciate how easy it is to talk to teachers and staff about how things are going, and any concerns are taken seriously. We love the wide-open outdoor area for the kids to roam, play, and use their imagination. It can be difficult to drop a child off at childcare every morning, and I’d imagine, like many parents, there’s always a twinge of worry if they are in a good environment. I can say, I’ve never felt more comfortable dropping the boys off than I do at Bell’s. I can leave trusting that my child is going to be well taken care of. I would strongly recommend considering Bell’s School when looking for childcare.

  • While no one will agree with 100% of a school's policies and procedures, I trust Bell's School with my child's safety and early development. I'm a parent of a child that has attended for 2 years. There is no where else in town that I would want my kid to attend.
