Staff

Our experienced, caring staff provides a warm, safe environment for learning and growing.  Each teacher is committed to nurturing the whole child, attending to their individual strengths and interests, while helping children learn through play and age-appropriate educational activities.

Our Director, Carol Cleary, is a Registered Nurse with a Bachelor of Science degree. An experienced educator, Carol worked in both the Chappaqua and Bedford school districts before beginning her career as Director of Play Care. Carol is a member of the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).

Each class is led by an experienced, qualified head teacher. Aides assist in each class. Staff members are trained in CPR and they attend training sessions for early childhood development regularly.

Experienced specialists offer separate Music and Creative Movement classes for our students each week.
