Social-Emotional Learning Increases Self-Awareness

Teachers use Conscious Discipline® to guide behaviors and choices. Children continue to master naming their emotions and self-regulation, but they also focus on others – being a good friend and supporting peers through tricky emotions.

Extra Security Measures Give You Peace Of Mind

Dual access controls at the main entrance and classrooms limit who has access to the children, while internal-use security cameras, fenced outdoor play areas, and CPR-trained teachers add an extra layer of security. Rest easy knowing school is safe.

Low Ratios & Support Services Help Them Thrive

A 1:8 ratio provides increased independence and added nurturing as your child moves between toddlerhood and preschool. Onsite speech and behavioral therapists see referred students, so please talk to your child’s teacher if you have any questions or concerns.

HighScope® Curriculum Guides Expanding Skills

HighScope® Curriculum Guides Expanding Skills

The dynamic HighScope® curriculum supports peak academic readiness. STEAM-based lessons get introduced at this age, and Pre-K readiness begins. More involved pre-math and early literacy lessons introduce new skills, while play remains the focus.

Early Spanish Introduction Gives Your Child An Edge

Specialist teachers introduce Spanish to 3s, who get a cognitive boost and academic edge with bilingual learning. Watch your child’s confidence soar as they show off their new skills and enhance their academic growth.

Innate Curiosity Fuels Daily Active Discovery

Teachers employ a balance between open-ended and guided lessons. Learning centers form the backdrop for more advanced inquiry, while personalized lesson plans mean kids work to their interests and skill sets.

Active Outdoor Play Now For Future School Readiness

Daily outdoor play works essential muscle groups your child needs for school success down the line. Running, jumping, and climbing on the turfed playground help develop gross motor skills, and gardening helps fine motor control.

Meals & Snacks Included Fuel Active Bodies & Minds

Chef prepares tasty breakfasts, lunches, and snacks daily in an onsite commercial kitchen. Healthy menu options include children’s own veggies from the garden and meet your child’s nutritional and dietary needs, allergies, and sensitivities.

The ProCare® App For Real-Time Communication

ProCare® Connect lets you stay up-to-date on your child’s day. Use the app to message teachers, view schedules and progress reports, ask questions, and address concerns. You even receive pictures and videos from your child’s day!

At NMELA I never felt like my baby was a burden, task, or a number. The love they give to their kids is zero to none. Everyone knows and loves him like family. Breanna and Alyssa even helped him to take a bottle when he first started. They are amazing at communicating and extremely accommodating. The staff are well qualified and know how to treat, teach and care for babies.
