Our classrooms offer children 6 months to 2 years the opportunity to explore age-appropriate materials and build joyful relationships with peers and teachers in a nurturing, responsive environment.  

  • Led by dedicated, professional and experienced teachers, who cultivate a space for listening, exploration and wonder 
  • Focus on attachment and care (eating, sleeping, diapering), and relishing these opportunities. 
  • Creating a community of partnership between parents, children, and educators 
  • 5-day, 3-day, and 2-day tuition funded seats  
  • 5-day Early Head Start funded seats 

Enrollment Pathways  

We braid funding in order to serve families across the Lower East Side — half of our Infant, Toddlers, and 2s seats are funded by tuition, and half are funded by Early Head Start (tuition-free for eligible families). Our online application provides guidance through our different enrollment pathways.
