Weekday Nursery School is a non-profit, state licensed (by the Office of Children and Family Services, OCFS) school located in the heart of Northport village.
Our spacious classrooms provide a welcoming atmosphere for the children to learn and explore. We offer programs for two, three, four and five year old children, and a Toddler and Me program for children ages 9 months to 24 months. Before and after care is available for our students beginning at 7:00 AM until 5:00 PM.
Physical exercise is vital to the development and good health of our young preschool students. Weekday Nursery School is fortunate to have an outdoor playground and a full-size indoor gym that the children use in inclement weather. Our students get exercise each day either indoors or outside. Our developmentally appropriate centers and manipulatives are meant to enhance and encourage children to learn through play and interaction with their peers. These experiences help children begin to understand the world around them, build self-esteem and expand their minds.
Our goal is to nurture a child’s sense of discovery by providing opportunities for hands-on learning and creative development. In this atmosphere we strive to cultivate each child’s independence, compassion for others, individual potential and growth in responsible, trusting relationships.
