As a parent, one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make is choosing the right North Shore preschool to send your child to. With so many great preschools in the local area, I know how difficult this decision can be. Keep reading to discover some of the top-rated North Shore preschool options that will warmly welcome your little one this year.

North Shore Nursery School

North Shore Nursery School has been serving the local community for the past 55 years. They are consistently rated as one of the top North Shore preschool options, and they offer child-centric facilities that are ideal for young children to explore. Their aim is to offer your child an early education that fosters the attitudes and skills that are required for them to enjoy learning for many years to come. They currently offer three separate classes, which help to meet the needs of young children. These start with the toddler class for ages two to three and work up to the older class for those between the ages of four and five.

North Shore Community School Preschool

As long as your child is aged three or above, you can consider the North Shore Community School Preschool for the next year. They offer classes for kids between the ages of three and five, and I believe they offer one of the most extensive programs in the area. Each of the lessons focuses on play-based learning and is led by a licensed preschool teacher. The school operates each year from September to May, and children can attend between two and four mornings or full days each week. You can be sure your child will spend plenty of time exploring outdoors, as they encourage kids to foster a lifelong connection with nature. As well as that, I appreciate that the classes at this North Shore preschool incorporate music, physical education, and art, which are important to develop creativity in young children.

Northshore Cooperative Preschool

If you are looking for a North Shore preschool that’s dedicated to offering a safe and nurturing experience for your child, consider the Northshore Cooperative Preschool. Their classes focus on social, intellectual, and emotional learning. You’ll find that they value play, compassion, experimentation, and they encourage parents to get involved as much as possible in their child’s education. Make sure you check out one of their preview nights in the next few months for more information about enrolling here this year.

North Shore Day School

Another great North Shore preschool is the North Shore Day School. They focus on offering a small class size that can provide the support that both toddlers and teachers need. This excellent teacher-to-student ratio allows each child to receive the attention they need to reach their educational objectives from a young age. They hope to help each of their students to develop healthy self-esteem and good social skills, which will allow them to succeed when they enter school.

Did you know that studies have shown that children who grow up with photos of themselves on walls around their home have higher levels of confidence and self-worth? Check out a family session here.

All of these North Shore preschool options will help to set your child up for success in the early years of their life. I’d highly recommend booking a tour or attending an open day to see these preschools for yourself and find the one that would be the perfect match for your child’s needs.
