I can not think of a richer preschool experience. My daughter (now in first grade) went there for three years, and my son is in his second year there. While they are very different children, I clearly see how the school environment has been instrumental in making them the happy, curious, self-reliable beings they are.

The Nurtury has amazing staff. Most teachers have been there for many years. All of them are approachable and incredibly dedicated.

Our favorite thing about The Nurtury is the size—you can’t beat the attention your family gets at this scale. The other fabulous thing for working parents is the hours—very long hours, but a well-paced day so kids get love and attention even if they’re away from home for so long.

The most unexpected, and in some ways most important, impact on our family has been the community aspect of our experience. Between the required volunteering and the social events, we’ve made friendships for life. I find the parent community diverse and truly invested in progressive education. This is a little gem of a school!
