About the Provider
Meadow Flower is a state licensed, privately owned preschool located in Fair Haven, N.J. It was founded in 1988 and has been happily serving the community’s children ever since. Owned and operated by Sandy Carasia along with a talented staff of teachers and assistants help make Meadow Flower the local nursery school of choice for our parents.
Our teacher turn-over is low, meaning our children are taught and nurtured by friendly and familiar faces…each with an average time on the job exceeding 5 years and some with over 10 years! Add a low teacher-to-student ratio and you’ve got a recipe for learning and growth.
Located in the United Methodist Church of Fair Haven and adjoining the picturesque Fair Haven Fields, Meadow Flower enjoys a warm and inviting setting for learning and growing.
Our programs include half-day sessions for children 2 ½ to 5 years old.
Some of the goals that we have include the following:
Provide an environment where children can develop positive thinking and self-worth
to increase competenciesw and skills in communications, physical coordination, self-reliance and dealing with emotions
To introduce problem solving, critical thinking and exploration of your child's own thoughts and ideas
