Preschools in Villa Park, Lombard, Oakbrook Terrace

Hi J.,

We live in Lombard and I probably looked at about 10 preschools even all the ones that you mentioned. My son attends Buttons and Bows in Elmhurst. We love it, they do really cute activities everyday and the kids and moms are really nice. Next year I was hoping to be a little closer to home so I have heard nothing but good things about The Growing Place and the First Church of Christ Co-op. They are both in Lombard and they both fill up very quickly but they have waiting list depending on what time you are looking for. If you have any more questions you can contact me anytime.

Good Luck!
Kathy

We go to the Growing Place and absolutely love it. It's in the church next to St. Pius. My oldest went there for 3 years (2 year old preschool, then 3 year old preschool, then 4 year old preschool). I have two kids there now, one in the 2 year room and one in the 3 year room and next year I will have one kid in each of the three classes! Registration is February 9th. You can call Lisa Elder the director at ###-###-#### and/or pm me if you have any questions.

We send our kids to the preschool through Salt Creek Elementary which is in Elmhurst but is mainly for Villa Park and Oak Brook Terrace residents. It is a 4 day a week program with the choice of morning or afternoon for 3 hours. Since it is in the school the children get to have gym, art,& music classes,and also get to go to library to check out books. It has been great because they go right from preschool into kindergarten and they know all the teachers and staff. Let me know if you have any questions! Good luck.
