Our primary concern is the social and emotional development of each child. We strive to provide a loving and secure environment which encourages cooperation, self-expression and respect for others. Our daily curriculum provides activities such as free play, arts and crafts, music, story telling, and outdoor play. Through various activities we try to foster a curiosity and respect for nature and for all the different cultures in the world around us. All themes are presented in an age appropriate, relaxed and fun-filled way. Our program is based on non-competitive, non-sexist and multicultural values. Most importantly we seek to respect the freedom of each child while providing structure and direction.
The campus early childhood program mirrors Bard's value on progressive education for our youngest citizens. The Nursery School and Children's Center operate as one unified program. Our early childhood campus includes two buildings (next door to one another) designed for full day education & care, with adjacent playgrounds and nature scapes for outdoor play every day in all seasons and all weather.
