About Us

Tiny Treasures Nursery School offers full day and before and after care with available transportation to and from local schools.

Tiny Treasures Nursery School was founded in 1989. We have eight classrooms allowing for a well-rounded curriculum for children ages 6 weeks to 6 years old. There are two teachers per classroom. Snacks are provided by the school. Field trips and special programs are scheduled throughout the school year.

Philosophy

Our philosophy is that children learn through hands-on experiences. Through positive reinforcement, consistency and engaging lessons, children grow in a safe learning environment. We offer a stimulating language experience, and opportunities for creative discovery. Children in our care are set up in a world of discovery where there is a balance of self directed play and teacher-directed projects.

Our creative curriculum involves all learners through circle time, read-alouds and musical engagement. Children develop their fine and gross motor skills through a variety of activities such as technology, building blocks, and playground play. Tiny Treasures has been NJ State Certified for over 30 years.
