Help, 3 year old nursery school questions.
Frankie is currently in a great nursery school (Peanuts in Farmingdale)....problem is the hours SUCK. They are just not long enough. I feel that he needs more stimulation. So I enrolled him for next year but Im really starting to second guess it. Its only 9-11:30, 3 days a week. Can I please get suggestions on other schools in the Bethpage area. I would love 9-12/1ish & would love 5 days. If you dont mind would you tell me the cost as well (or fm me). Thanks so much!!!

Re: Help, 3 year old nursery school questions.
I've heard great things about Kiddie Junction.
Looks like their M,W,F program goes from 9:10-12:10 (for 335 a month!)

I'll try to think of other ones around here that I've heard good things about!
ETA: Maplewood is another great one around here supposedly. It's much more then we pay though.

Re: Help, 3 year old nursery school questions.
DD is in the 2 year old program now at St. Lukes in Farmingdale. She goes tues./thurs. hours are 9-12.
She will be in the 3 yr.old program next year. She will go m/w/fri. 9-12. They also have a 2,3 and 5 day a week option for the 3 year olds.
They even have all day 2,3 or every day if u needed I believe.
I love it there, its a great school and the price is very reasonable.

I was just googling for St. Luke's website for her, I can't find it for some reason. Do you have it by any chance?

Thanks! Stace - maybe look into the three full day program for him. I bet it's not alot of money at all. Just bc I wasn't crazy about the school doesn't mean you won't like it!

Re: Help, 3 year old nursery school questions.
DS goes to Dilly Dally in Farmingdale. I love this school and I've only heard good things about it from other people too.
They offer 1/2 day am 1/2 day pm 9-12 and full day 9 - 4. They also have extended hours if you need them. They are really flexible with days and hours. DS is in the 3 year program and goes 2 full days a week. He goes Tues/Thur but I know some kids go Mon/Tues or Thur/Fri. They are really flexible and will work with you.
They also have a summer camp. DS started with the summer camp last year. Then, when I was out on Maternity leave he went 1/2 days. When I went back to work, he started full time. Next year he'll go 3 days a week.
We were between this school and St. Lukes. St. Lukes was a little less expensive but we liked Dilly Dally better because the school itself was much smaller and felt cozy-er. The class sizes were the same but the school sizes were different.
They don't have a website but let me know if you want their number. They'll send you all the info.

Wee Friends doesn't have a website.
They have several 3yo programs.
Half Day 9-11:30 or 12-2:30 anywhere from 2, 3 or 5 days a week. You don't have to do TuTH or MWF, they will let you pick what days work for you. My DS does the 5 day am session.
They also have mini day (9:30-1:30 I think) that you can do any combo of days like above.
There is also an all day session from 9-2 or 2:30 but I can't remember if that's for 3yos or just pre-k. Also any combo of days you want.
I can ask when I pick up dd & ds later if you want.
