A Dedicated Mobile Alabama Preschool

It's really simple. We love children, and we are passionate about what we do. At The Watermelon Patch Preschool, we treat every child like they are our own, period.
For more than five years, the Watermelon Patch Preschool has offered children a learning environment that inspires them to discover, create, learn, and grow together. Our preschool balances a structured teacher-led curriculum with free play where children can creatively express themselves and interact with other children at their comfort levels.
Our dedicated facility is committed to the following goals:
-
Promote academic, physical, emotional, and social growth.
-
Offer an educational curriculum with structure and routine.
-
Develop positive self-awareness and independence.
-
Maintain a healthy and secure learning environment.
