Serving our Community for over 50 years! 

Thank you for visiting the Gig Harbor Cooperative Preschool website. We welcome you to explore and learn about GHCP and how the ‘Cooperative Experience’ allows you to actively participate in your child’s early education. Your child receives the encouragement to become a lifelong learner and you, as a parent, become a more confident ‘teacher’ to your child with our affiliated support from Bates Technical College and your school community.

GHCP provides benefits to each child through its play-based learning atmosphere designed to promote cognitive, language, physical, emotional, and social growth. Our teachers, parents, and curriculum strive to foster foundational development through motor skill training, hands-on experience, visual learning, and much more. As children develop their skills, they gain self-confidence and independence, leading them to personal success for years to come.

Experiencing GHCP firsthand is the best way to fully appreciate our ‘Cooperative’ spirit. We warmly welcome you to visit our school. Please feel free to contact us to schedule a time to stop by!
