Gan B’nai Shalom provides a high quality early childhood program. We nurture the social, emotional, spiritual and cognitive development of each child by providing a creative, warm, respectful, and enriching Jewish environment. Our program is designed to facilitate self-esteem and respectful social relationships. The children are encouraged to explore and develop their curiosity through play and challenging experiences. Our age appropriate environment encourages language development, creativity, gross and fine motor skills.

Judaism is integrated into our daily activities through art, science, manipulatives, stories, songs, and imaginative play. Whether we are learning about a holiday, exploring our environment, or merely playing with our friends, Judaism is a living experience for all those who are part of our community.

Each individual grows and develops at his/her own rate and possesses their unique ability to learn. The teachers at Gan B’nai Shalom respect each child’s needs and provide experiences to enhance each individual.
