Our Early Childhood programs are designed to give your child a variety of opportunities to master the social, emotional and physical tasks of each developmental stage in a healthy, safe and Judaic environment.
The programs are intended to support the essential nurturing provided by the
parents.Your child will be surrounded by professionals who care for him/her and whom you and your child can trust.

A special dimension of our program at the JCCNS is the opportunity to grow here. Many children who begin in our Infant/Toddler and Prime Time Programs move on to our Preschool Program, summer camps and then to our After-school Programs. Programs at the JCCNS instill a sense of belonging which is fundamental to a child’s sense of well being. We encourage families to belong and participate in all Center programs.

Staff

You will find the teachers in the program to be responsive, caring and knowledgeable. All of our teachers are highly qualified professionals who have the interests of your child at heart. All staff are certified in First Aid, CPR and
participate in ongoing staff meetings, staff development and staff training. Our child-to-teacher ratio ensures that each
child receives optimum care and attention.

Parents

Our open-door policy welcomes parents to visit at any time. Teachers will let you know the highlights of your child’s day. Lead Teachers are always available for individual conferences. Parents are encouraged to become involved
in the program by participating in various committees, organizing family social events, educational presentations and
