Our program is proud to have, once again, earned the NAEYC Accreditation -- the mark of quality for early childhood education programs. Here at Little Harvard, we believe that it is never too early to start learning! Starting from the infant room, children are engaged in an exciting, hands-on curriculum that inspires children to explore and grow while using their imagination.

Your children will love spending their day with us! We work to maintain an inviting and educational environment that stimulates creativity and imagination. As part of the New York State Nutrition Program, we provide healthy fresh food for the children. At our private preschool, we pride ourselves on a curriculum that is of the highest quality and completely compliant with the New York State Learning Standards.
Services
Your babies will be safe in our infant care program, for little ones from 6 weeks to 18 months. Young infants have their senses exercised in our thematic program that focuses on reading, music, movement, and sensory exploration. We also teach sign language for the communication of basic needs, and to enhance and support language development.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please keep your children's personal toys at home. Children should only come with certain items if they are being presented for 'Show and Tell'. It makes it very hard in the classroom to keep these separate from our own supplies, and properly send their toys back with them home. Our Parent Handbook is provided so that you may understand the school's policies and guiding principles.
Sick Policy -- By the regulations of Office of Family and Child Services and the Board of Education all schools are rquired to have a sick child policy.

My son started at Little Harvard last year and he loves it so much! He is learning a lot, making friends, and he loves the teachers.

Second day of new school year our child gets hurt. We don't know what happened because no one was watching or knows anything. Could not walk or support own weight. Had to take our child to urgent care where they received an X-ray showing no breaks. We were told it was a possible bruise or sprain. We unenrolled our child. One time is too many for us, because that one time could be fatal!!!

*side note* (facts with a little side of rant)

When we moved to New Windsor we didn't research schools because we didn't have any children. Now that we do, and started the research, the results

I had taken a tour of the facility to find a shocking disturbing lack of security as I walked into Little Harvard. A non-secured metal gate, an open front door leading into main office, no cameras or locks keeping children safe. Around back leading upstairs to children's room there was no lock on doors. I found nothing short of alarming in today's day of predators being able to walk in and grab my child. Being a single mom with full custody of my two young boys, I find the judgement here to be careless and I'm amazed the state hasn't been called in to evaluate these issues

All staff are knowledgeable with child care situations!! My daughter took some time to warm up in the mornings; staff would know what to do as distraction for an easier transition!
