SMNS was founded in 1991 by Temple Sholom congregant Selma Maisel.
It was Selma’s dream to create a pre-school that would provide a strong foundation for a lifetime love of learning. Today, we keep this vision central to our program by building skills and knowledge in an environment that holds kindness, mutual respect and cooperation as important values.
In the fall of 2018, the Selma Maisel Nursery School expanded to include a full-day option for children as young as six weeks old through pre-school.
Both full-day and part-day programs (part-day is open to 2’s, 3’s and 4’s) are led by experienced and professional teachers and staff, and support an individualized approach to education and care.
At SMNS, we strive to stay on the cutting edge of early childhood education.
Over the past two years, we have added unique learning spaces including a dedicated STEAM Lab, Gymnastics Studio, garden, and an outdoor STEAM playspace. Children also visit our Discovery Room weekly to learn about and meet new animals from the Stamford Museum and Nature Center, and take daily trips outside to the multi-level state-of-the-art playground with its own child-size town.
Children at SMNS enjoy the wonderful richness of Shabbat, Jewish holidays and traditions through music, stories and creative activities.
We often draw on the resources of Temple Sholom’s clergy and professional staff, and all of our families are encouraged to participate in the Temple’s programming geared for young children and their parents.
We take great pride in our diverse specials and after-school enrichment programs, which promote hands-on learning through exciting educational activities.
Examples of specials included gym, music and movement, and drumming. Examples of after-school enrichments sessions include Gardening, Rad Lab Science, Ballet, Yoga, Sports School and Cooking.
In addition to full/part-day nursery school, we also offer non-separating programs for parents with children under 24 months.
Our Itsy Bitsy Playgroup (for parents with infants/toddlers under 18 months) meets once a week and provides a “chat and play” experience with music, motor play and story time. Our Little Explorers and Little Tumblers also meet once a week and are for children between 1 and 2 years old. Little Explorers offers a non-separating introduction to the pre-school experience, while Little Tumblers promotes tumbling, movement and other gross motor activities.
Beginning the summer of 2019, SMNS will offer the same great curriculum in a summer-friendly format for rising 3’s, 4’s and Kindergarteners.
Led by experienced and professional teachers, the summer program will consist of five, 2-week sessions from June 11 through August 18.
