In 1958, four local mothers began taking turns having each others preschool children in their homes one morning a week. The children met on a regular basis, rotating homes each week. Soon other friends and neighbors became interested in joining and within one year the group had grown to nine mothers and twelve children, ages three and four.

As a preschool teacher turned stay at home mom I was so excited when I was first told about the Co-Op.
