Little Wildflowers Cooperative Preschool (LWCP) is a place where families can flourish. Our co-op model is a gentle introduction to the classroom where lifelong friendships are made. Parents and caregivers work alongside our teachers to provide an early childhood education in a safe, inclusive environment where social, emotional, and academic skills are learned through play. LWCP is a supportive, welcoming community to all families. 

Our preschool, named by our beloved teachers Lauren Jensen and Naomi Sunderland, speaks of resilience and beauty no matter where you land. The name honors our focus on nature, builds upon our 35 years in Crown Hill, and holds space for a flourishing future — a place to bloom. 

Little Wildflowers Cooperative Preschool (LWCP) is a member-run, non-profit preschool supporting early childhood development. LWCP is part of the North Seattle College network of cooperative preschools.

Little Wildflowers Cooperative Preschool believes diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging are integral to early childhood education and to supporting all families. We strive to create a respectful and welcoming learning environment that celebrates diverse identities, experiences and perspectives. We are committed to taking action against practices, attitudes and behaviors that promote discrimination and exclusion of any type. Our cooperative preschool prepares children for our diverse and multicultural world in which they will be caring, compassionate and productive citizens.

We respectfully acknowledge that we educate and support children on the traditional land of the Coast Salish peoples, specifically the dxwdəwʔabš (Duwamish) peoples, past and present. We honor with gratitude the land itself and the Salish peoples.
