BB International Preschool purchased the historic "McNab House" located at 1735 East Atlantic Blvd, Pompano Beach. The house was built in 1925 by Pompano pioneer W.H.McNab and has been beautifully and faithfully restored. In addition to the historic house, another building has been added, with a unique ambiance, non typical of a conventional school setting. It includes an Italian piazza surrounded by lovely gardens, including a Butterfly garden, a Fragrance garden, an Herb and Vegetable garden; all created by the children and their teachers.
BB International Preschool, a NAEYC Accredited center, for ages 20 months to 6 years, has been serving the Pompano Beach community for 25 years. A lovely waterfront community with residents from around the globe enables us to speak 5 languages in our center. The center is built upon a Reggio Emilia inspired philosophy, fostering child initiated learning in multi-age groupings with close parent and community involvement. Respect for children, families, our own International Preschool family and the greater community is a core concept of our philosophy. In an effort to recreate a Renaissance experience, the center incorporates a variety of fine art experiences, including music appreciation, social skills, and developmentally appropriate environments where the children gain the confidence to question, explore and therefore to learn. Add to the mix lots of nurturing teachers/caregivers, extensive family involvement and a strong community network, who combine to create the community of BB International.
As Amelia Gambetti of Reggio Children says,
“The theory is the development of a new culture of childhood that places the highest value on the competencies, intelligence, and creativity of human beings in the first years of life.”
