About the Provider

Description: We are a warm and nurturing community, a place where learning is playful and encourages a child’s natural curiosity. Each child is celebrated as an individual, as our staff nurtures inborn gifts and highlights each child’s ability to shine and contribute to our community.

Shomrei Emunah recognizes the importance of education in the first five years of a child’s life, which when nurtured properly, have the ability to pave the way for a lifetime of achievement and meaningful milestones. Our goal is to support young families on their path, whether you are looking to meet new friends, expose your family to the joys of a Jewish holidays and traditions, or instill your child with confidence in his/her ability to explore, create, and learn.

Students in our program learn by doing, touching, tasting, singing, painting, and exploring their world in natural ways. Play is a child’s first exposure to learning limits, socialization, team-building, imagination, and more! Our classrooms are filled with children playing dress-up, building with blocks, poking and rolling out play dough, mixing ingredients for a recipe, and exploring different art mediums. Teachers facilitate play, eliciting questions from students, encouraging social interaction, and helping students problem solve and think creatively.
