Meet our Team

Family Preschool is committed to offering the best preschool education in Durham. As part of that goal, we hire only the best teachers to be a part of our family. We hire teachers who are experienced, have training in the educational philosophies we embrace, and who are equally committed to our children and their development. Family Preschool is proud to pay our teachers a living wage salary that shows our commitment to and understanding of their important work. Our dedication to paying our teachers a living wage, coupled with our diligence in hiring the most dedicated teachers for our school, have led to outstanding teacher longevity and an exceptional family experience.
