About the Early Childhood Program

      The Early Childhood Program in the Philip Coltoff Center at Greenwich Village is designed to meet the increasing capabilities of children from 4 to 40 months old in an age-appropriate manner. All classes are located at the Early Childhood Annex, at 177 Sullivan Street between Houston and Bleecker.

Most classes have a Lead and an Assistant Teacher, with maximums of 8-16 children per class. Our staff is a caring and energetic team who work together to create a nurturing and stimulating environment for your child. An adult must accompany each child and participate in class.

The Early Childhood Program follows the Creative Curriculum focusing on process not product with an emphasis on the importance of play. It is our belief that all children deserve a quality education and that learning starts at the time of birth. It is the Mission of the program to serve our families,with the understanding that children learn best from the adults that care for them. You baby growing is such an exciting time and we look forward to sharing  and nurturing your child's development with you!
