All Things Bright & Beautiful Preschool

All Things Bright and Beautiful is a ministry of Church of the Holy Comforter, an Episcopal church located just blocks from Lake Michigan. We welcome children into a loving, faith-based community where we celebrate all spiritual growth.

Founded in 1994, All Things Bright and Beautiful Preschool is a DCFS-licensed early childhood education program serving the nearby communities of Kenilworth, Winnetka, and, Glencoe, Northfield, and Wilmette.

Each day, children engage in active learning through art processes, music, circle time, sensory table explorations, stories, and free play opportunities. We subscribe to a play-based philosophy and child-centered curriculum, providing a safe, nurturing, and structured environment that is designed to encourage social and emotional growth, build self-esteem, and foster success.

Our staff are passionate about early childhood education and partnering with families to provide a powerful, positive experience for our children.
