About Hollis Preschool
A non-profit, non-sectarian
organization founded in 1952
Hollis Preschool was founded by a group of Hollis residents who wanted a place for their children to come together. Since then, hundreds of children have passed through our doors, including second-generation students whose parents once attended themselves. While we've grown, evolved, and relocated over the years, the heart of our philosophy remains the same: a strong commitment to providing a meaningful, high-quality early childhood education.
Our Teachers
Hollis Preschool is fortunate to have a dedicated team of passionate teachers who are committed to helping children learn, grow, and thrive.
All of our lead teachers have backgrounds in Early Childhood Education and bring years of experience and continued learning in areas such as Special Education, Speech Therapy, Counseling, and Elementary Education—we’re proud of the diverse expertise they bring to our classrooms.
Our assistant teachers include community parents and former substitute teachers, all drawn to the joy of working with young children. Each year, our entire staff completes state-required training and workshops to stay current with best practices and standards in early childhood education.

"My daughter has grown so much during her years at Hollis Preschool! Each program is engaging, creative, challenging, and fun. Everyday she comes home excited to share what she has learned and stories about her friends. We are confident she will have all the skills needed to excel next year in kindergarten."
- parent, Liz R"We love Hollis Preschool! The staff is outstanding and go above and beyond for their students. The small class size really enabled the kids to become a little family in the safe and nurturing environment. The activities and events they put on help the school to feel like a community. We can't wait to send our next child there!"
- parent, Katie VMy daughter attended Hollis Preschool for three years. It is a nurturing environment that helped her bloom from a shy two-year-old to an intellectually curious four-year-old, and perfectly prepared her for kindergarten (even as the youngest in the class!). She now loves school, and I can easily chalk that up to her positive experience at Hollis Preschool.
- Parent, Alissa A"Both of my sons have gone here and we loved the small community we have created from the friends they have made. I recommend the preschool to anyone that is looking to enrich their children's lives."
- PARENT, MICHELLE LThe teachers and director at Hollis Preschool have been the greatest gift to our family. Before starting, our three-year-old son was anxious around other children, but thanks to the nurturing, warm, and patient guidance at this school, he has completely come out of his shell—he’s now the life of the party! His social skills have blossomed, and we’ve seen incredible growth in his confidence and development." - Parent, Mindy S.
