Our Neighborhood

At Village Playgarden, we are proud to serve families from across the San Gabriel Valley, including the welcoming communities of Sierra Madre, Monrovia, and East Pasadena. Conveniently located in Arcadia, our school is just minutes away from these neighborhoods—making it easy for parents to provide their children with a nurturing, Waldorf-inspired early childhood education rooted in nature, rhythm, and play.

Each of these communities shares the values we hold dear: a love of nature, a strong sense of community, and a belief in slowing down and letting childhood unfold with intention. Whether you’re enjoying the quiet charm of Sierra Madre, the vibrant spirit of Monrovia, or the family-friendly feel of East Pasadena, Village Playgarden offers a gentle, joyful learning environment that feels like an extension of home.

Our central location means your child can start each day with outdoor play, meaningful connection, and imaginative exploration—without the stress of a long commute. We invite families from nearby neighborhoods to visit our campus, meet our teachers, and experience the heart-centered care that sets Village Playgarden apart.
