Message from the directors:

We are delighted that you are interested in Battery Park City Day Nursery for your family’s preschool experience. After your virtual tour, we encourage you to contact us so that we may discuss your family’s needs. We understand your desire to choose the best school for your child and want to make the search as painless as possible.

Our Best Practices Approach and play-based philosophy incorporates themes and learning styles within a developmentally appropriate environment where learning is exploratory and fun. There is child choice time as well as teacher directed small and large group activities where your child can interact with peers and adults. Our experienced and certified early childhood teachers challenge the children by exposing them to information about the world they live in. Through careful observation, teachers adjust the curriculum to meet your child’s developmental needs.

Most of all, we want your child to have fun and to become a well-rounded individual who is interested in new discoveries. We hope you discover that we are a preschool “where loving and learning go hand in hand.”
