LEARNING THROUGH PLAY

Welcome to the East Side Nursery School, a parent/ teacher cooperative preschool since 1957, where young children learn through play.

Welcome to the East Side Nursery School

Our play-oriented program allows children to develop the skills and knowledge necessary to be successful in later schooling and in their daily lives.

We support and encourage learning through active play

ESNS is a joyful and community-centered nursery school where children explore and learn through play.

About the Program

PHilosophy

We believe learning is an interactive process that requires active thinking and experimenting though child-led and teacher-supported exploration.

We have two class groups: a three-year old class that meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and a four-year-old class that meets on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Our adult-child ratio is approximately 1:5.

Applications open on September 1 for the following school year. Class spots are offered in March preceding the school year.

Happening at ESNS

It may be summer vacation, but fun with friends continues at weekly park playdates until school starts in September. This is a great way for children to maintain social connections, forge new friendships, and smooth the transition to a new school. Sometimes there are even surprise visits by the teachers!

"The individual attention given, genuine care shown, and wealth of knowledge and experience the teachers have, honestly, has enriched not just our kids but our whole family. We love ESNS!"

"Highlights: the community and the warm, caring, communicative environment... I'm still wowed by what an amazing place it is."
