Newburgh Preschools

We work to maintain an inviting and educational environment that stimulates creativity and imagination. We work with children ages 6 weeks to 12 years old. We understand the need for affordable childcare that not only allows for parents to go to work knowing that their child is not only learning and meeting milestones, but are being loved and nourished emotionally as well.

School Philosophy

It is our philosophy at Home Away From Home that from the earliest age, children "learn by doing". Children learn best and retain information when they are an active participant in the process. Our programs have been carefully designed to enable each child to realize their full potential while developing a good sense of self-esteem.

Our Programs

Our programs have been designed to enable each child to reach their full potential. Children are encouraged to be independent but to also realize their important place in a team environment. Our classrooms run on weekly themes allowing children to discover something new everyday. Students learn through fun and participation in activities such as science, music, cooking, drama, and even a special "show-n-tell" day. Our pre-K class has consistently tested in the 90th percentile for kindergarten! After a year of learning and fun we hold a "Moving-Up" and graduation ceremony each June.

Our Facility

Our 6000 square foot facility, conveniently located on Route 9W, just two minutes from Vails Gate, was renovated in the summer of 2004. We have two infant rooms, a toddler room, setup room, 3-year-old classroom, pre-kindergarten classroom, and a before and after school classroom. We also have both an indoor and outdoor play area. Every classroom has its own bathroom and sink, as well as the entire building being central air-conditioned. As an added safety feature, our main entrance has a security foyer, limiting access through a key pad entry system, where each family has their own code for entry into our facility.
