A Warm and Nurturing Start

Full-time teachers will guide your child in building independence, social skills, and readiness for Kindergarten, all through play and developmentally-appropriate academics like counting and storytelling. Children are stretched by specialist teachers in music, art, movement, and library, enriching each week, laying a well-rounded foundation for lifelong learning.
At Berkeley Hall, preschool is where your child’s curiosity takes root, friendships begin, and the joy of discovery comes to life.

We’d love to meet with you and show you what makes the early years at Berkeley Hall so special.

A Play-Based Foundation

At Berkeley Hall, our Nursery and Early Kindergarten classrooms are warm, joyful spaces where children take their first steps into learning. With full-time teachers in every room, students explore through stories, games, and hands-on play that creates confidence, curiosity, and independence.

Each day, parents stay connected through photos, videos, and daily interaction at drop-off and pick-up.

A Skill-Building Curriculum

Our early childhood program is built on a proprietary, research-based curriculum designed to support every stage of development. Children grow in phonics, early math, motor skills, language, and social-emotional learning - all within a monthly theme that responds to their interests.

Character education is embedded into each day, helping students build strong foundations for future learning.

Enrichment & Community

Specialist classes in music, movement, drama, science, cooking, and library spark creativity and wonder. Our expansive campus provides endless opportunities for outdoor play and discovery.

Social skills like empathy and cooperation are taught intentionally, and families are welcomed into the classroom through events, volunteer opportunities, and shared celebrations.

The teachers are kind and nurturing - the small class sizes allow the teachers to meet each child’s needs academically and socially. The curriculum is well-rounded and challenging, and most importantly, my son loves going to school.
