History -
East Aurora Community Nursery, founded in 1948, was the first nursery school in East Aurora. It provided a two-and-one-half hour program five mornings a week. As the community changed, a full day program for two, three, and four year olds became necessary. In 1978 the school expanded into a childcare center licensed by New York State. In response to the community’s continuing demands for more services EACN sought a new home. Currently housed on the campus of Fisher Price we offer childcare for children 8 weeks to 5 years. For over 50 years this not-for-profit organization has provided early care and education programs.
Philosophy -
East Aurora Community Nursery fosters the development of children and their families by providing a program whose focus is on nurturing children in an environment which meets their physical, intellectual, social and emotional needs. This involves offering children a variety of developmentally appropriate activities throughout their day.
We are committed to the health and safety of the children entrusted to our care. Communication between parents and staff is encouraged on a daily basis to bring consistency between home and center.
Our daily goal is to have children feel good about themselves and their time spent with us. In addition, our program ensures a caring response to unique family situations.
