NJS Kinder Cottage offers one cohort ~ children 3 through 5 years old (18-20 children daily). The true cost of quality childcare is exorbitant, even more so during these challenging times. NJS Kinder Cottage subsidizes each child/family generously, absorbing the additional costs required to create NJS Kinder Cottage, operate daily, as well as incorporating our BEST PRACTICE safety protocol measures for the children and staff. We strive to offer the highest

quality/safest care possible, while maintaining the lowest daily tuition rate we can. It is a delicate balance indeed. Providing a weekly thematic curriculum for the younger friends, incorporating the Letter People and a rich K-Ready Preparedness curriculum for the older friends, coupled with added enrichment activities and lots of outside play each day.

​

Enrollment shall be open to any child, provided we can

meet the needs of that child. Enrollment shall be

granted without discrimination regarding sex, race,

color, creed, national origin or religion.  ​
