Playgarden Prep School: Preschool, Pre-K, and Early Childhood Education in NYC since 2007
At Playgarden Prep, we foster an early love of learning through an innovative Montessori-inspired curriculum in a supportive, responsive setting. Children thrive through exploration, play, and intentional teaching with emphasis on language, literacy, and STEAM. We focus on whole child development, nurturing social, emotional, cognitive, and physical growth.

Our curriculum is intentionally dynamic to reflect current research and best practices in early childhood education, while staying grounded in what we know matters most: how children learn best.
