April 1, 2004 marked the one year anniversary of our new management of JFKids Port. In this past year we have grown to more than fifty children. We are very excited about the increase in enrollment as more and more people in the JFK community find out about us. Our prices are affordable and we cater to the needs of young children from 6 weeks to 5 years of age. We have a combined experience of 30 years in early childhood education. Our philosophy is that of caring for children in a safe, fun and nurturing environment. The school is surrounded by beautiful gardens with separate play areas for each age group. We are currently accepting applications for our summer camp where we take children through age 12. This past year gave our young students many exciting moments, including trips to the circus, a carnival, Halloween, Holiday and Valentine parties, a book fair, Mother’s Day flower planting party, various field trips and many other fun learning activities.
