Founder's Letter

Dear Families,

Choosing the right early childhood program is one of the most important decisions you’ll make for your child. At Strong Start Early Care & Education, we recognize that every child deserves a nurturing, stimulating environment that sets the foundation for a lifetime of learning and success. That’s why I founded Strong Start—to bring the exceptional quality of top nursery and independent private school Pre-K programs into an early childhood setting designed for children ages 0-5 years, offering full-day options that support today’s families.

Why Strong Start?

At Strong Start, our approach is centered on building a true partnership with families to support your child’s learning and development. We go beyond traditional childcare—our centers are dynamic, welcoming communities where children thrive, parents stay connected, and friendships flourish.

From day one, you'll feel the difference.
A Research-Backed Curriculum

Inspired by my studies at Williams College, Yeshiva University, and research opportunities at Yale University, our program incorporates best practices in child development. Our goal is to facilitate learning from the inside out – creating an intrinsic motivation to learn. We believe that a child-centered, inquiry-based, open-ended, play-focused approach to learning does exactly that.

A Warm & Engaging Environment

Our center’s open-door policy warmly welcomes and encourages you to visit at any time.

A Smooth Transition For Your Family

We understand that attending a new early childhood program is a big step, and every child adjusts at their own pace. Our experienced teachers will work with you to make the transition seamless and stress-free.

More than just a school
—a place where your child will thrive.

As a parent, I’ve experienced firsthand the joy of watching my own child learn, grow, and flourish at Strong Start. My goal is to ensure every family feels that same confidence and peace of mind—knowing your child is in an environment where they are loved, challenged, and encouraged to reach their full potential.
We look forward to welcoming you into the Strong Start family.
