Environment:
Battery Park City is a safe, picturesque neighborhood with child-friendly parks, playgrounds, and walkways. Our enrollment is a reflection of the ethnic and cultural diversity present in the neighborhood. Experienced teachers help children whose first language is not English feel comfortable and thrive.
Although most families walk to the Nursery, approximately 25% travel into Battery Park City from other parts of the City and New Jersey. You can find directions to our nursery here.
Similar aged children are grouped together. Depending on their age, there are ten, fifteen or twenty children with three teachers in each room.
The Nursery has five, bright, sunny classrooms all located on the ground floor. Though construction on our building complex currently prevents us from using our private enclosed backyard, we hope to be able to use it again soon. For the time being, teachers take children on daily outings to local parks and grass areas so they are sure to get plenty of sunshine!
