About Tacoma Children's School

Tacoma Children's School started in 2017 as an art- and science-based, in-home preschool and enrichment program. Our founder later joined with the creator of The Pod Works, a kid-friendly co-working space, to form Our Pod Family, and our school is now one of its three locations alongside The Co-Lab in the Proctor District.

We teach children ages 2.5 to 5 in a morning preschool that runs from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., and families choose two, three, four or five days a week based on availability. Each day we enroll up to 18 children with three certified teachers. Our curriculum grows from art and science, with projects that invite children to ask questions, explore and create in an environment arranged for hands-on discovery.

Families pack a lunch and snack each day. We also run seasonal camps, and financial aid applications are available through Our Pod Family.
