ECEA

Established in 1955, Wesbrook Preschool is proud of its history of providing safe, quality care for young children in West Point Grey and the surrounding neighborhoods. Wesbrook is a parent involvement preschool where children, at an individual pace, learn and develop through play, while parents learn and grow in their abilities to be child educators at home, school, and in their community.

Our goal is to help children blossom socially, emotionally and intellectually, while having lots of fun along the way. We believe that playing is a critical part of early childhood development and should be used as the medium to develop these key skills.
