The Willa Playschool was founded in 2004 by two mothers; both educators. Julie Bisson and Alina Singletary created the school on principles of attachment parenting, inspiration from the schools of Reggio-Emilia, anti-bias practices, and peace education.

​

Teachers at the Willa Playschool are experienced (over 25 years in the ECE field), college educated, loving, tuned in to each child, skilled in emergent curriculum and anti-bias practices, and value working in partnership with families.
