About Us

For over 55 years our purpose at East Hampton Nursery School (EHNS) has been to provide a variety of activities that enable children to grow and develop. 

Our programs utilize a child-centered, hands-on approach. The curriculum is different and tailored for the 3 and 4 year old programs

EHNS is also the only facility in East Hampton that is solely a preschool and not a daycare facility.  

The East Hampton Nursery School is a not-for-profit organization run by a volunteer Board of Directors and is licensed by the State of Connecticut.

Our goal is to provide a safe, secure and stimulating environment where each child develops their own special gifts and abilities, gains self-confidence and grows emotionally, physically and intellectually.

“Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children, play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood.”

— Fred Rogers
