Hello! I am the founder of Shining Bright Nurturing Space Wonderschool. I was inspired to create a Holistic program because it has always been my dream to create a nurturing space that nurtures the whole child. I am a homeschooling parent and have loved watching my son develop over the past 17 years, finding his unique interests in education and beyond. I have 20 years of experience working with young children and collegiate childcare credentials. As a proud member of the National Association for Family Childcare, SBNS is committed to upholding the highest standards of childcare. Contact SBNS to learn more about availability, rates, and pricing.

“The daily activities at the daycare are engaging and educational. I’m impressed with the appreciation for the learning process. The center places a strong emphasis on learning through exploration, play, and creativity which I believe is crucial for early childhood development. Having my child attend this family daycare has been a wonderful experience. The daycare is consistently tidy, and the toys and play areas are regularly sanitized, which reassures me that my child is in a safe and healthy environment.”

Filosofía

Our onboarding philosophy at Shining Bright Nurturing Space embraces an Inquiry-based, Modern Holistic Approach to honoring the whole child. We are inspired to evolve and expand this holistic approach, recognizing each child’s innate awareness and abilities. Our nurturing environment instills values of helping others, love, peace, gratitude, and deeper awareness of self and surroundings. We encourage discernment, free expression, and respect for self, others, and the environment.

Ubicación

Nestled in Manhattan, New York, Shining Bright values the uniqueness in our city’s diversity and incorporates various educational traditions and approaches to suit the needs of each child individually. Shining Bright seeks to nurture the whole child through exploratory and creative activities. Our daily rhythm consists of creative outlets of expression such as exploration in natural environments, movement, arts and crafts, reading, creating wholefood nourishment, mindfulness, among many other things. This array of expression stimulates children’s minds toward academic studies such as reading, writing, math, science and social studies. Children will have some outdoor time everyday at a local park. I also have a wall-enclosed roof deck in my building easily accessible through the elevator. I believe outdoor time is essential in allowing children to get fresh air, recharge, and learn about connecting with nature.

We look forward to getting to know your family and your child’s unique needs.
