Sierra Madre Community Nursery School

At Sierra Madre Community Nursery School, we believe that every child deserves a nurturing and caring environment to grow and develop. Our school has been providing high-quality early childhood education for over 70 years, and we are proud to be one of the most respected nurseries in the country. Our program is designed to foster a love of learning, creativity, and exploration, while also developing important social and emotional skills.

Our Philosophy

We believe that every child is unique and deserves a personalized learning experience. Our teachers and parents work together to create a warm and welcoming environment that encourages curiosity, creativity, and imagination. We believe that play is the primary way children explore, experiment, discover, invent, create, and learn about the world. Our teachers are trained to facilitate play-based learning, ensuring that every child feels valued, respected, and supported.

Our Programs

We offer a range of programs for children from 2 to 5 years old, including Group I, Group II, Multi-Age, Group III, and Group IV/V. Each program is designed to meet the unique needs and developmental stages of each age group. Our programs are based on a traditional calendar, with a 2-week summer break in June and a 2-week summer session in July. We also offer extended care and after-school programs for working parents.

Meet Our Staff

Our dedicated staff is committed to providing a nurturing and engaging environment for every child. Our teachers are certified in early childhood education and have extensive experience working with young children. We also have a team of paraprofessionals who support our teachers and assist with class activities.

School Year Schedule

Our school year typically begins in September and ends in June. We offer flexible scheduling options, including 2, 3, or 5 days a week, morning or afternoon sessions. Our morning program runs from 8:30am-11:30am, and our afternoon program runs from 12:30pm-3:30pm. Children do not need to be potty-trained to attend our school.

Summer Play Days

In the summer, we offer two three-week sessions of Summer Play Days. Each session is held on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays from 9am-12noon. Children enjoy an even more relaxed schedule, with activities tailored to the summer season. Aftercare is also available during this time.
