St James the Less Nursery School is committed to providing a warm and nurturing school experience that values the uniqueness of each child. We believe that play is the work of children. Our children participate in a stimulating variety of learning activities which encourage discovery,creativity, self-awareness and social interaction in an atmosphere of trust, warmth,order and respect.
We are a family daycare located in Williamsbridge Bronx. Specializing in independent learning and play. We are currently accepting ages birth to 5.
We know that children learn best by "doing". Therefore, the activities the children participate in are concrete, hands-on, and encourage participation, but most of all fun, because we believe that learning is an exciting experience. Furthermore, we know that children also learn through play; because of this we do not under estimate its importance on a growing child's mind, body and spirit. Therefore, the children in our care receive lots of both free-play and structured-play throughout each day. During structured-play we primarily only have one group of toys or activity out at a time in order to allow the children to concentrate fully on each thing they do. Our intent is to provide each child in our care with a perfect balance of play-time and learning experiences throughout each day. Each child is given the opportunity to develop at his or her own pace in a setting that is challenging, enjoyable, and instills a lifelong love of learning.
