Garden House in New York offers pre-schooling and Kindergarten in attractive purpose-designed premises for children from the ages of 2-6 years. A thoughtful balance of play and structured learning is cultivated during the school day. This encompasses a holistic view of the child’s development: physical, social, emotional and cognitive.

We believe that kindness, manners and a respect for one another are essential elements in character building. Equally important to our philosophy is the introduction of reading and writing before Kindergarten. Developed in our London school the early Reading Program is implemented in our New York schools.

Our core curriculum entails Dramatic Play, Language Development, Early Mathematics, Movement, Pencil Control, Reading, Science and Writing whilst emphasizing Art, Ballet, French and Music.

Children thrive in an aesthetically beautiful environment. Garden House School aims to provide a visually stimulating environment using color, art works and fresh flowers.

We encourage you to apply online, and we will welcome you to our school.
