Kensington Nursery School's program focuses on hands-on learning in a positive, child-centered environment.

You can also check your options in Middletown, CT for traditional preschool centers, or private home-based preschools.

When you begin looking for preschools near me in Middletown, CT, consider your priorities and ask administrators about their philosophies and approach to common child care issues or occurances.
