Eliot Chapel Preschool

"This preschool is wonderful! I’ve had two children thrive at Eliot Chapel Nursery School. Everything I’ve read and researched about child development in the past few years was pointing to kids needing time outdoors and self-directed, free play. And ECNS gives kids just that. They get the time and space for growth and discovery. Independence is encouraged. The kids play outside just about every day, and I love that. My son digs in their sandbox, rides a strider bike along their bike path, and constructs elaborate tracks and paths of loose parts and wood pieces with his classmates. Kids work is play, and the teachers encourage each child's play interests. Kids get to choose what they do each day. How cool is that? I’m so glad we found this school. Also, best playground in town. :)"

"We feel so lucky to have found ECNS! We have been a part of the ECNS community for the past 5 years. We moved here from out of state and toured several preschools in the area before finding Eliot Chapel. We knew immediately upon touring that this school was where we wanted our daughters to attend. We have since sent all 3 of our daughters through the ECNS preschool program. The play-based approach to learning and the incredible compassion and care our children have received makes this an amazing school! The playground is amazing (their 'outside classroom') and the outdoor play and learning can't be beat! I truly recommend this school to everyone with littles . You have to check this place out!!"

"If you were to ask my 3 year-old what he likes most about Eliot Chapel Nursery School, he would say the playground. It is a great playground with so many options for outdoor play, including swings, cars, a sand pit, and a boat! The play-based curriculum suits my active son well, including the lovely enrichment classes like music, yoga and nature lessons. As a parent, I appreciate the warm, nurturing environment that the staff fosters. If you’re looking for preschools, I would definitely recommend taking a tour of ECNS and experiencing it for yourself."

"Eliot Chapel is a wonderful preschool. My 10 year old daughter went here and it prepared her very well for elementary school. I now have a two year old son in the beginner class this year. The teachers are caring, experienced, and there are always interesting and educational things for the children to do. When I was working in a high school I was able to do the extended day option and my daughter even loved staying for lunch bunch. Great school!"

"Absolutely loved our time at ECNS! We loved our teachers and all of the staff. I felt like they really knew my son and cared about his feelings and what he liked and how he was progressing. He’s definitely kindergarten ready. But even more than that it was the way that they made him feel about himself that makes this school the best."
