Curriculum that nutures early development
Thoughtfully designed programs weave high-quality learning experiences with Jewish traditions to build confidence, strengthen values and nurture your child’s growth in their classroom, community and life.
Building a community that grows with you
Choosing the right place for your little one is about more than just the classroom. It’s also about finding friendships and fostering relationships that grow with your whole family—both children and parents.
Celebrating culture and heritage
By teaching young children about our shared history and values, Jewish early education programs can help them build their identity and understanding of the world—empowering them and their beliefs.

Learn MoreOur oldest child made lifelong friends that he still wants to see, even after graduating three years ago. Our youngest has the best time and has grown so much. We love when they randomly break out into Hebrew songs.
As working parents with two kids under the age of three-and-a-half, we struggled to find a place that fit all of our requirements. We were so pleased to find a program that welcomed our busy family with open arms.
The moms of our original classroom remain close. We bonded over shared struggles and the need for other moms who just get it. I’m so grateful for these preschool moms who got me through the early years of parenting.
