OUR SCHOOL
Our Tribeca Community Preschool serves families in Lower and Downtown Manhattan. Our classes begin at ages 18 months – 5 years. We offer a full academic curriculum in a warm and nurturing setting. Our beautiful preschool is located in the heart of Tribeca and our classrooms are bright, modern and equipped with state-of-the-art equipment carefully chosen to inspire our students’ imagination and encourage their budding independence.
At My Little School, we strive to honor each child by nurturing each individual's innate sense of wonder and curiosity. We firmly believe that the cornerstone for all cognitive learning is a nurtured sense of self worth, achieved by celebrating each child’s individual creative expressions and their unique strengths. All of our teachers are certified educators who embody a unique blend of personal and professional warmth.
Our preschool classrooms are full of opportunities for learning, socialization and growth. Judaic and academic themes are mutually reinforcing, and cover all the various domains that complete an early childhood education: Literacy, pre-Mathematics, Social Sciences, Science and Art.
At My Little School, Jewish learning is not simply a subject. The warmth, meanings and practices of Judaism are an integral part of each day. Jewish songs, holidays and traditions are taught in meaningful and joyous ways, inspiring a deep-rooted Jewish connection in each of our students.
Our approach to integrated education is informed by both Jewish wisdom and the best of progressive educational practice. Our approach to teaching is informed by developmentally appropriate practice ('DAP'), which is a framework designed to promote young children's optimal learning and development. DAP involves teachers meeting young children where they are, both as individuals and as part of a group; and helping each child meet challenging and achievable learning goals. These methods guide and inspire us to maintain a high level of respect for each individual child, for the pursuit of knowledge and for the world around us. We view each child as a precious gift entrusted into our care and this belief translates into every day and each encounter at My Little School.
We look forward to meeting you and answering any questions that you might have.
