Description: The purpose of the Haddonfield United Methodist Nursery School is to help each child to develop to the fullest his own potential in an atmosphere of love and trust, of acceptance and understanding. As a church sponsored school, we attempt to provide this nurturing atmosphere, to follow Christian principles and to encourage Christian attitude, but do not teach sectarian doctrine. The Nursery School is approved by the State of New Jersey, Division of Youth and Family Services on the basis of equipment, personnel, class routine, and sanitation and fire prevention. The program develops around the interests of the children, using language arts, math, social studies, science, music and art. We believe the individual child should have his curiosity aroused, his horizons expanded and his experiences broadened.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
