Our Beverly site is an extension of our Early Childhood Program housed at the Marblehead JCCNS, and offers two classroom options: a Toddler room for ages 15 months to 2 years 9 months, and a Preschool/PreK multi-age classroom for children between ages 2 years 9 months and 5 years old. Our enriching curriculum encourages social, emotional, and physical growth in each individual child. We support and promote positive feelings about school and strive to instill a life-long joy of learning and discovery. Children are introduced to language arts, science, math, social studies, music, and creative movement in their daily classes, while each classroom fosters social growth, creativity, and independence.
Our experienced Early Childhood Program staff love what they do, and it is evident in the experience they provide our community of children. Our teachers lead with love, support, and care, and are trained in understanding the process of child development.
The JCCNS’s Early Childhood Program is well-known for our experienced teachers, loving and personalized care, small class sizes, research-driven curriculum, exciting specialties and welcoming community.

Classrooms:
Ages 15 months to 2 years 9 months (Two teachers with nine children max)
Our Toddler Room provides a safe and nurturing environment designed to help every child grow and become progressively independent. Our toddler-aged participants enjoy activities that strengthen their social skills as well as their school-based learning skills. We follow a weekly theme-based schedule, incorporating books, activities, and fun, all while learning and playing together. Our typical day includes Circle Time, snack breaks, meals, free play, outside playtime, art, and sensory and gross motor skill activities! Our toddlers are very busy!
Ages 2 years 9 months to 5 years. (Two teachers with up to 14 children max)
Our Preschool/PreK classroom environment and curriculum are based on developmentally appropriate philosophy and practices. Through “play” children gain knowledge and understanding of the world while developing and strengthening their social, emotional and leaning skills. Our preschool day includes exploring different learning centers in our room, gaining independence and self-confidence through the process of discovery, problem solving and hands-on participation in small and large groups. We implement learning-based themes by using all developmental areas to ensure we are collectively utilizing all of our individual strengths. We work toward strengthening and developing Kindergarten readiness skills in writing, reading, math, science, art, physical play, as well as social skills.
