About Us

Welcoming children from the Montara, Moss Beach, El Granada, Half Moon Bay, Pacifica and Pescadero areas.

At Coastside Kids, Inc. dba Picasso Preschool our goals are to LISTEN, GUIDE, NURTURE, and EDUCATE in a loving and healthy environment.

To LISTEN with an open heart and mind, to help in the development of each child's personality. Listening to a child aids in the development of the sense of trust, the feelings of being understood, loved, and secured. This process of sharing by the child and listening by the teacher helps promote a sense of well-being in each characteristic of every child's personality.

To GUIDE in the development of the individual child to the best of his/her own abilities. To look and value the whole child as an individual to better understand all physical, mental, and social characteristics.

To NURTURE and EDUCATE in a way to provide a safe and healthy environment where children can learn to grow educationally, emotionally, and socially within a group of their own peers. Values taught include nurturing in healthy choices, manners, and support feelings, in addition to the head start in academics appropriate to formal education.
