Preschool in Portland, Maine; co-op style

The Children’s Nursery School (CNS) is a co-operative preschool nestled in the courtyard of downtown’s historic State Street Church. Daily, students nurture meaningful friendships while challenging their social, emotional, creative and intellectual boundaries. We offer tours of our program to interested families throughout the year – we would love to see you!

Not only does our daughter have wonderful teachers and school friends at CNS, she has a network of other parents with whom she feels extremely comfortable. One of my favorite parts of CNS is watching these relationships develop, and knowing that her first experience of the world without me is rich with interesting, thoughtful, loving adults.

CNS has taught my boys the real skills they need to be successful in life: kindness, compassion, empathy and love.
