About Us

In today's busy world with many families having both parents working, or a single parent juggling work, life and family, the Poughkeepsie Day Nursery has expanded its services to involve the whole family.  Parenting workshops are offered throughout the year and all are welcome.

We are proud to be recognized as one of the oldest Early Care and Education Centers in the nation and are currently serving our third generation of children.  The Poughkeepsie Day Nursery provides a Creative Curriculum combined with an atmosphere of three L's:  Love, Laughter and Learning, to help our children develop into well adjusted, responsible, productive adults.  The curriculum provides meaningful experiences in a safe, nuturing atmosphere.  Every child is encouraged to do their best and to develop a love for learning.

The philosophy at the Poughkeespie Day Nursery is that children can learn through play.  The Creative Curriculum environment allows children to explore, develop, and begin a lifetime love of learning.  Hands-on activities and open-ended projects stimulate a child's curiousity and build self-esteem.  Our exciting curriculum allows the opportunity for children to develop eye/hand coordination and to develop fine motor skills.  An atmosphere of our three " L's ", Love, Laughter and Learning prevails.  The Poughkeepsie Day Nursery believes that parents are their children's primary teacher and strives to make the Nursery an extension of their children's homes.  By virtue of this philosphical vision we have maintained a reputation for safe, quality Early Care and Education in our community for over 100 years.

Please note: For more information about our facility and our unique program, please call and we will be happy to arrange a tour.
