Known as one of the most trusted Facebook Groups in our area, 35,000 local families are always ready to share their expertise in the Main Line Parent Community. That’s why when we asked “Who are the top preschools and Kindergarten programs in our area?” they answered with enthusiasm!
First, we’re pleased to introduce you to our Main Line Parent Education Partner Members, who support our Community and Education Guide. Have you had a great experience with any of them? You can help other families benefit from your experience with an endorsement on their Profile Page!

French International/ L’école Française Internationale
“Wonderful language immersion program, warm and kind teachers. Lots of diversity in the school, with many nations represented, so there is a lot exposure to other cultures.” – Erika H.
“We feel like part of a community at Goddard Bala Cynwyd. Also, their facilities are beautiful and clean. It’s one of, if not the only, daycare in the area we know of that has an indoor gym which is great for the kids to get to run around in during the winter months.” – Kim C.
Overbrook Preschool and Kindergarten
“The teachers and director go above and beyond to make our child and our family feel welcome. Music and Spanish are included even for the youngest children. The environment is built upon inclusivity.” – Mary H.
“The teachers and staff are so caring and genuinely care for your child. Almost every teacher sent their child through West Hill and that’s how they treat your child. The classes are well organized, fun and very educational. Our son flourished at West Hill, making lifelong friends along the way as well as building a love of learning.” – Amy K.

How is this list derived? Is there some sort of vote or survey done? Are you able to share the results of that? Also, I thought this was meant to be for the main line, but appears that 2 of the 6 results are in Philadelphia.

Hi Pete, we created this list based on the results from our School Survey (see above). We explain how we’re showing off our Education Partner Members’ Profile Pages and our “Friend Preschools,” who the parents in our Main Line Parent Community have completed the School Survey about. 🙂 As for your Philadelphia concerns, many parents who live around the Eastern Main Line consistently recommend these preschools, year after year.
