Christ Church Nursery School


About Us


Christ Church Nursery School was established in 1960 as a non-sectarian, non-profit, outreach of Christ Church Greenwich. At Christ Church Nursery School, we believe each child has unique abilities and an infinite capacity to grow. Children come through our doors with special gifts and it is our delight to celebrate their individuality.

Our mission is to promote the social, emotional, cognitive and physical development of each child. We nurture children’s innate love of learning, awaken their curiosity and encourage their creativity through our caring, developmentally appropriate and challenging programs.

Christ Church Nursery School strives to deepen a child’s understanding of spiritual values such as kindness, mutual respect and cooperation. When children leave our school we believe they will be independent thinkers, risk takers and good friends who will grow up to make a difference in the world.
