"Thank you for all that you do to make the magic happen at the JCC preschool for our little ones. For 3 years we’ve watched our daughter learn, grow, and thrive in the nurturing environment you all help to foster. And now, we have the pleasure of watching our youngest follow in big sister’s footsteps. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all the thought, care and work you put into cultivating this community of light and joy for our kiddos and the entire APJCC preschool community. We are grateful for each of you and all that you do."

I can’t thank you enough for all the support and understanding you have shown us. We all highly appreciate you and the amazing teachers, and all the wonderful team at APJCC!

We are so grateful for all that you do for our kids. We’ve been a JCC family for some time now and we are thankful to have such a warm and loving environment that truly cares about our kids. Our kids loved their time at the JCC and have/had such a special relationship with all of their teachers and all of the staff they’ve come across.

A Warm, Inquiry-Based Preschool in Los Gatos Where Children Feel Known and Supported

Choosing a preschool is really about finding a place where your child feels safe, happy, and excited to walk through the door each day. At APJCC Preschool, we create a warm, community-centered environment where children are encouraged to explore, ask questions, build friendships, and develop a genuine love of learning.

As a private preschool in Los Gatos, our approach blends early childhood education with hands-on discovery, social-emotional growth, creativity, and meaningful connection. Children learn through play, conversation, movement, art, storytelling, and real experiences that help them make sense of the world around them.

Rather than rushing children through a one-size-fits-all curriculum, we give them room to wonder, investigate, and grow at their own pace. Our teachers help guide that process with care and intention, supporting each child’s curiosity while also helping them build confidence, independence, and early school readiness.

From toddlers beginning their first classroom experience to older preschoolers preparing for TK and kindergarten, APJCC Preschool provides a nurturing preschool environment where children can grow socially, emotionally, and intellectually while feeling deeply connected to their classroom community.
