Woodland Haven Preschool

Overview

Woodland Haven is a non-profit preschool and childcare center that operates year‑round with a reduced number of annual closure days. The site lists two California license numbers for the center. The program emphasizes social‑emotional development alongside early academic skills.

Approach and curriculum

The program incorporates elements of Montessori, Reggio Emilia, and Waldorf approaches and aims to support hands‑on exploration, independence, imagination, and problem solving. Teachers use an emergent, play‑based curriculum with planned projects in art, music, cooking, science and nature; classrooms use primary caregiving for infants and maintain lower teacher‑to‑child ratios in younger groups.

Facilities and outdoor learning

The campus includes renovated buildings and more than half an acre of fenced outdoor space. Outdoor features described include edible learning gardens, a miniature amphitheater, playground equipment and spaces for gardening, bike riding and nature exploration.

Health, safety and staffing

Daily cleaning and disinfecting practices and periodic electrostatic disinfecting of hard surfaces are described.
The center uses the BrightWheel app for health reporting and follows local (Yolo County) health guidelines; masks are optional at the time described.
Buildings are described as renovated with updated fire alarms and smoke detectors, controlled access for parents, and a locked, gated playground.
Lead and primary teachers are described as having early‑childhood training and coursework; staff qualifications include college degrees and ECE credentials for some roles.
