Early Education Cooperative Preschool

At Early Education Cooperative Preschool, we believe the best learning happens through play. As Phoenix’s longest-running parent cooperative preschool, we’ve been nurturing curious, confident, lifelong learners since 1961. Now right in the heart of the 85018 zip code, serving families throughout Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Paradise Valley.
 

Our play-based, Reggio-inspired curriculum encourages children to explore actively, think creatively, and feel confident trying out their own ideas. Every child learns at their own pace and in the way that works best for them. Rather than structured lessons, we provide open-ended experiences and environments that spark curiosity and build a genuine love of learning, habits, and attitudes that make a difference throughout their lives.
 

As a parent cooperative, families aren’t just welcome here, they’re essential. Cooping parents participate actively in the classroom each week, creating an intimate, community-centered experience unlike any other preschool in the Phoenix area. It’s a partnership between teachers, parents, and children that makes EEC Preschool truly special.
