Wonderful first school experience for children - combining play, school/basic life skills, nature, and being a part of a community. I did the co-op option for both of my children and our "helping days" spent together at Cherry Hill are truly special. My oldest child graduated Cherry Hill and was prepared and excited to attend kindergarten. My younger child had a harder time transitioning to school and I was grateful that I could be involved and work with the wonderful Cherry Hill teachers and administration through times that she struggled. The Cherry Hill community is kind, friendly, and I highly recommend sending your child there, if you are looking for a part-time program.

We have just graduated our youngest from Cherry Hill and are so sad to leave a place that has meant so much to our family. The teachers and other families became our extended family. The kind, nurturing and supportive environment is a wonderful place for a first school environment. My children learned to love school because of the amazing teachers. Being in the classroom as a helping parent watching my children become their own independent being is incredible. The laughs, hugs and fun cemented their love of their first educational experience! If you are looking for more than a school, a true community where your children’s growth is going to be nurtured and accelerated, join Cherry Hill Nursery School. It was the best decision for our family in countless ways.

I could not imagine a better preschool for my children than Cherry Hill Nursery School. The teachers are absolutely incredible! They are kind, loving, enthusiastic, and implement important life lessons daily. Their years of experience and training in early childhood education is beyond impressive. The multidisciplinary approach to learning through play, science, reading, art, and nature that is offered at CHNS is invaluable.CHNS has been beyond just a school for our kids, it's a community we've become part of in the Princeton area. The school has created a welcoming inclusive culture where families enjoy spending time together often outside of school activities.My kids LOVE school, look forward to going every morning, and talk about their school day each evening:) They've made great friends at CHNS.Highly recommend!

So glad I found CHNS when we first moved to town...I cannot write enough about how much we loved our experience there! We loved the amazing teachers (we have since met other alumni from years ago who still remember how much their kids loved their teachers at CHNS and how well their kids were prepared for kindergarten!). We also especially loved the opportunities to get involved with the school community and meet other families. Having moved several times through the last few years we have experienced several preschools and while they were all good, CHNS really stands out to us as providing a warm, nurturing environment where we made long-term friendships with other families. I am really going to miss it now that our youngest is going to Kindergarten!

What a gem of a school! We absolutely love CHNS, for so many reasons. The quality of CHNS' long term teachers is unmatched, parental involvement is highly encouraged and the children are nurtured, challenged and celebrated. My daughter leaves with a huge smile every day, and we have made the best friends - both children and parents! Highly recommend.

Both of my sons attended CHNS and it was the best possible foundation for the rest of their education. From the caring teachers to the co-op model which allowed for an incredible community atmosphere, CHNS was the best educational decision we've ever made.

As a parent with 2 out of my 3 kids going through this school ( my youngest will start in September) I can say with confidence that our children love going to CHNS every day. They've made so many new friends, learned a lot of new things, and had a lot of fun. As parents, it's wonderful to see our kids excited to go to school and happy when they come back home. The teachers and staff at Cherry Hill Nursery School are incredible. I can't recommend this school enough!

How bittersweet it is to be graduating on from this special, special school. We are so fortunate to have found CHNS, as it was the first school experience for our soon to be 5 year old. As someone who was only 18 months old when Covid locked everyone down for a year, we started our daughter in 2021 in the 3’s class. CHNS handled all Covid safety protocols gracefully, and school became our 3 year old daughters favorite place, even masked and socially distant. Moving onto this year in the 4’s class with a more normal, mask free experience, she flourished even more. The staff is so warm, loving, and nurturing and most have been teaching at CHNS for decades. These teachers are the reason CHNS is such a special place! They truly know how to teach children to foster independence, problem solving, and relationship building at such a young age. Our daughter has made lasting friendships that we know will continue for years to come! One of the best parts of CHNS is the co-op model, which allows the families to not only experience a day in the classroom with their child, but to also get to know their classmates and the other families. This was a great social outlet to meet other local families and especially great if you are new to the area or looking to make other friends with parents of kids the same age as your own. We look forward to being able to return to CHNS in a few years when our youngest is old enough! Highly recommend!!

An incredible play-based preschool that is parent-run and enables families to be involved with their children's time at the school. I have both my 3 year old and 5 year old at the school and can't say enough positive things about this wonderful co-op school!

Wonderful school. Teachers are excellent. Co-op structure makes it much more affordable than other local options.
