Our Mission

The Sandlot is an exceptional private home preschool that proudly serves the Morgan Hill and neighboring areas. We offer a nurturing and educational program that caters to children aged 16 months to 5 years. Our primary objective is to deliver unparalleled childcare by establishing a safe, healthy, and caring environment that fosters the social, physical, emotional, and cognitive development of your child. We also strive to meet the needs of your family by working in partnership with you. At The Sandlot, we aim to help our children grow strong, healthy, and happy lives while fostering a relationship built on trust and respect. Our hope is that every child who passes through our doors will leave feeling valued and empowered to achieve their goals and dreams, no matter how big or small.

Bright Wheel Platform

Bright Wheel is a comprehensive platform designed to simplify the management of childcare centers. One of its key features is automatic billing and payment processing, making it easy for parents to keep track of their expenses and prepare for tax season. Additionally, the platform allows for easy check-in and check-out of children on a daily basis. This helps parents stay informed about their child’s attendance and schedule.

Another important feature of Bright Wheel is the creation of an easily accessible digital emergency phone contact list for each child. This provides peace of mind for parents and ensures that schools have the necessary information to reach parents in case of an emergency.

Finally, Bright Wheel facilitates quality connections between parents and teachers. Through video and picture updates, parents can stay connected with their child’s progress and daily activities. This helps bridge the gap between home and school, creating a supportive and collaborative learning environment for children.

Our Promise

At The Sandlot, we hold the belief that every child is a remarkable and distinct individual deserving of an enriching, secure, and dynamic child care experience, irrespective of their race, gender, ability, economic background, or religion. As fellow parents, we understand the challenge of entrusting your child to others, but we assure you that we will provide a nurturing and affectionate environment for your child while you are occupied with school or work. Rest easy knowing that your child is in good hands with us.

1. We’re Not Just a Preschool…We’re a Real Community.

We know each other’s names, stories, and snack preferences. Our families genuinely care about one another, and your child isn’t just joining a class , they’re stepping into a tight-knit crew of people who show up, help out, and cheer each other on. If you’ve been craving connection, you just found your people.

2. Your Child Will Make Super Friends.

The kind that share crayons and giggles and maybe a few goldfish crackers. We help kids build real friendships through kindness, inclusion, and play. These are the first best friends your child will remember for a lifetime.

3. We Care About You Just As Much As Your Child.

This isn’t a drop-and-go kind of place. We’re here for you, too. Whether it’s venting about a rough morning or celebrating a parenting win, we’ve got your back with zero judgment and a whole lot of love.

4. We’re Safe, Friendly, and Respectful .. Always.

We don’t just say we’re a safe space, we live it. Every child is treated with kindness, every voice is heard, and every hand is held with care. Respect is the foundation here, and we model it every single day.

5. We’re Big on Belonging.

Your child will feel like they matter here , because they do. We honor each child’s unique personality and celebrate what makes them them. Shy, loud, wild, sensitive, curious , there’s space for it all.

6. We Build Confidence, Not Just Skills.

Sure, they’ll learn letters and numbers, but more importantly they’ll learn to raise their hand, use their words, and believe in themselves. We celebrate effort over perfection, and your child will grow into someone who knows they can do hard things.

7. You’ll Get to Be Part of the Magic.

From silly dress-up days to class photos, book orders, graduation gowns, and videos that make you cry happy tears , we include you every step of the way. These are the memories you’ll treasure just as much as they do.

8. Your Child Will Be More Than Ready for Kindergarten.

We don’t rush childhood, but we do gently guide it. By the time your little one heads to Kinder, they’ll be confident, curious, and totally capable. And you’ll be shocked at how much they’ve grown.

9. Learning Happens Everywhere Here.

We extend beyond four walls and take the learning into the real world. Nature walks, family events, hands-on projects, we believe the best kind of learning looks like fun, feels like freedom, and sounds like laughter.

10. We Lead With Love.

Every decision we make comes from a place of love,  not just policy. Whether it’s wiping tears, cheering on a milestone, or navigating big emotions, we show up with patience, empathy, and heart. Always.

 

What Our Parents Are Saying

My child attended The Sandlot a few years ago, and I felt compelled to leave a review after meeting with his kindergarten teacher. While we never had any doubts about Miss Lori and her staff’s ability to prepare our child for school, we were pleasantly surprised to learn just how advanced our child was due to their program. The teacher gave our child excellent reviews not only for his advanced reading skills but also for his kindness towards others, leadership qualities, and willingness to help always be helpful. My wife and I give all the credit to our son’s time at The Sandlot. We are incredibly grateful to Miss Lori and her amazing staff for their hard work and dedication.

The Sandlot Preschool was such a great choice for my son to start his school experience. I was a little nervous putting my son in preschool for the first time because I knew he would have some issues detaching from me and…he did. Ms.Lori and her staff worked so hard with my son at school and we partnered with her at home to help him get through the worries and troubles he was having. By the ending of the 3rd month he had completely blossomed socially, emotionally and academically. He can recognize his name and spell it, knows all his shapes, numbers, colors and knows Zoophonics (alphabet phonics)like a pro! His social and emotional intelligence took off as well. They always have cute themes each week and create fun activities at school to go with it.Ms.Lori and her staff also incorporate classroom activities that extend to the home so you can be apart of your child’s learning experience. Children don’t come in perfect packages and some children take more time than others to warm up; it can be scary being away from your parents for the first time. I will always appreciate the time, care and support they provided him when he first started.He’s now a social butterfly, great class helper, an amazing super friend and a little smarty pants lol We will miss The Sandlot so much. Thank you all for everything. ❤️
