Preschool in Portland, Maine; co-op style

The Children’s Nursery School (CNS) is a co-operative and NAEYC accredited 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!

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

CNS turned out to be an educational and developmental process for our entire family, not just for our four year old. Our amazing teachers and alloparenting community have inspired confidence and restraint, exploration and contemplation… simultaneously. I cherish the year we’ve already had, and am eager to meet the year ahead.
