Neighborhood Children’s House in Northeast Minneapolis is absolutely wonderful. It’s for ages 3-5, has been around for 20 years and is currently enrolling.
They’re a part-time preschool option with morning and afternoon classes.
If you reach out, they may want a feature-it’s been difficult finding enough enrollment this last year.
Thank you so much for letting us know!
