Rooted in Discovery and Growth.
Little Acorn Grove Daycare, based in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, provides a nurturing, play-based learning environment for infants and children. Our approach is grounded in the understanding that early childhood is a critical period for cognitive, emotional, and social development.
Our daycare blends developmentally appropriate practices with principles drawn from the Montessori, Waldorf, and Goddard approaches—each honoring the whole child and encouraging natural curiosity, creativity, and independence.
We believe that children thrive when they feel safe, seen, and supported. That’s why we offer a rhythm-based daily structure with ample time for unstructured play, exploration, and connection to nature.
We provide child-sized materials and real-life activities that encourage autonomy and purposeful movement. We incorporate language-rich environments and hands-on projects that promote early literacy, numeracy, and collaborative problem-solving.
Our goal is to help children build strong foundations for lifelong learning—developing not only the academic skills needed for school readiness, but also the self-confidence, empathy, and resilience that carry them through life.
At Little Acorn Grove Daycare, every day is an opportunity to grow through meaningful experiences, thoughtful guidance, and joyful discovery.
