The Oaks Parent Child Workshop is a play-based cooperative preschool for children ages of 2-1/2 to 5. Families who join The Oaks will be joining generations of Santa Barbara families who chose to participate in a cooperative school, with the goals of learning more about child development and parenting, becoming a part of a nurturing and supportive community, and having a hand in creating a responsive and stimulating learning environment for their preschool children.
