Tivoli Rainbow Garden Preschool

Tivoli has been a wonderful place for our son for the last 2 1/2 years. He started at Tivoli when he was 2 1/2 and stayed until he was 5 years old. The reasons we chose Tivoli are, it was small, and it felt safe. Ilka follows a RIE and Waldorf approach in her education, which was inline with the way we were raising our son. The German language takes front and center stage and our son's language skills improved dramatically from the time he started at Tivoli. We also loved that Ilka and her team follow a lot of the German traditions like Maitanz, Sankt Martins Umzug and many more. You can tell how much love goes into it and how much all the kids enjoyed it. We really enjoyed our time at Tivoli but most importantly, our son loved it! Nicole and David

Our twin girls have been attending Tivoli for 6 months now and they absolutely love Ilka and her entire team! Ilkas altruistic personality, knowledge, attention to detail and commitment to her kids growth and emotional stability is priceless! Tivoli really is the only truly immersion program in the area. At Tivoli German Language and culture is a priority. My wife and I feel so safe having our girls at Tivoli. If youre looking for a grounded environment for your children, theres nowhere else you should be!

Our son has thrived since arriving at this fantastic preschool!  Tivoli Rainbow Garden is a very nurturing Waldorf inspired school, which allows the kids to use their imagination, be creative, and build confidence.  Also our son's grasp of the German language over the last year has grown tremendously by being in this full German immersion environment!  We love the tight community of parents and teachers, as well as all the great activities put on by the school, including, the Lantern Festival and May Faire.  If you are a parent looking for a preschool for your child, then take the time to tour the school and meet Ilka!
