Mountain View Preschool
Where Children Grow and Thrive
About
Hi! I’m Raechel Sweda, and I’m so happy you’re here!
I’m the proud owner of Mountain View Preschool, a place built on love, learning, and lots of little smiles.
I bring over 10 years of hands-on preschool experience and a strong educational background in Early Childhood Development. Working with young children has always been my passion, and I’ve had the privilege of supporting children of all abilities, including extensive experience working with children with special needs. I truly believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, and encouraged to grow in their own unique way.
My teaching style is fun, nurturing, and energetic, with a big focus on learning through play, building confidence, and developing social and emotional skills. I love creating a warm, welcoming environment where children feel excited to explore, ask questions, and be themselves.

Our Curriculum
At Mountain View Preschool, we are not just childcare—we are an intentional early education program designed to build strong foundations for lifelong learning.
Our curriculum is thoughtfully designed to support the whole child—academically, socially, emotionally, and creatively. We believe young children learn best through play-based, hands-on learning, so our program blends structured activities with child-led exploration in an inclusive and nurturing environment.
Family Communication
We believe strong communication between families and teachers is essential for a child's success. We see families as true partners in their child's learning journey.
We have daily communication through the Procare app.
Our Misson
At Mountain View Preschool, our mission is to provide a safe, inclusive, and joyful learning environment where every child feels seen, supported, and celebrated. We are committed to nurturing each child’s social, emotional, and academic growth through play-based learning, positive relationships, and individualized support—helping children build confidence, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning.
Opening Mountain View Preschool is a dream come true, and I’m honored to partner with families to help their children learn, grow, and thrive every single day.
