The School

Edmonds Cooperative Preschool (ECP) is a safe, nurturing, child, parent, and community focused program that encourages each child and participating family to develop and learn at their own pace.

Edmonds Co-op Preschool is located in the Alderwood Early Childhood Center, nestled within a residential neighborhood at the edge of Lynnwood, Washington. Led with love by long time teacher Patti Baughn and Vicky Fryer, ECP offers numerous physical, cognitive, and social opportunities consistent with early childhood development beliefs.
ECP is a non-profit organization affiliated with, and supported by, Edmonds Community College, the Inter Co-op Council, and the Organization for Parent Education in the state of Washington. Adult Co-op members are registered with Edmonds Community College and earn parent education credits.
We are excited about our school and our program. We invite you to contact our registrar for information and/or to schedule a visit!
