With two convenient locations in New York City on Manhattan's Upper West Side, Smarter Toddler is an arts-based early childhood school offering full-time and part-time preschool & child care programs to children aged between 3 months to 5 years.

The school was founded by parents of gifted young children who wanted a progressive preschool with an advanced arts-based curriculum that their children could benefit from. We believe that the artistic, cultural, and social development of each child is integral to education. We are dedicated to providing a foundation that encourages each child’s lifelong love of learning through art and music.

The addresses of our preschools are:
- 406 West 55th Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 (between 9th and 10th).
- 100A West 89th Street, New York, N.Y. 10024 (between Columbus and Amsterdam).


Location and Facilities:

 

Our school was developed around the idea that quality child care and education should be home-like. From the vintage toys, low height lounge chairs, and original artwork, everything has been carefully designed to make children feel like they are at home.

At Smarter Toddler we bring the outside world into the children’s lives at school. The program provides a rich environment that promotes children’s active exploration in all areas of development: physical, emotional, linguistic, aesthetic, and cognitive. We go above and beyond the standards of other daycare centers.
