Parents’ Nursery School-
A co-operative nursery school
in Cambridge, Ma since 1947

Central to the philosophy of PNS is a strong faith in children — that given a warm and supportive atmosphere, respect, and freedom from unnecessary adult pressures, a child’s own natural curiosity is the greatest impetus to his intellectual development. The child’s need to give and receive love is the strongest stimulus in his social and emotional growth. Parents’ Nursery School strives to reinforce children’s self-esteem, concern for others, and eagerness to learn.

Parents’ Nursery School was incorporated in 1947 as a non-profit, integrated, play-based, cooperative nursery school.  The nursery school itself is owned and run by a corporation consisting of the parents, the director, and the teachers. Since 1948 we have been located at our current site but we are excited to announce that we will be moving in the summer of 2012. Our new home is just a short distance away at 117 Cushing Street in the Strawberry Hill Neighborhood of Cambridge, directly across the street from the Haggerty Elementary School. The building has been purchased, the zoning has been approved and, just this December, we reached our Fund for the Future Capital Campaign goal!

We are so excited to begin breaking ground on our new building and hope you follow our progress on our blog. Parents Nursery School is a historic institution but we have a dynamic and exciting future ahead of us. Explore our website to find out more about our community and the wonderful educational experience that is available for your child at Parents’ Nursery School.
