PRESCHOOL
Learning through play
The outdoor preschool at Chestnut Ridge is invested in supporting the individual child and learning alongside them while observing their growth in all areas of development. We create an excitement for learning and encourage creative thought and ingenuity at an early age.
Children develop skills in all areas of development throughout the day.
As a nature preschool, being outside is our number one focus - we recognize outdoor play as a key component in children gaining courage, self-awareness, self-assurance, and a stability of knowing the world around them.
OUR PROGRAM
Children’s interests and passions become an essential part of what we do each day, and our nurturing and supportive environment allows them to feel comfortable and confident as we explore together. We combine our emphasis on the outdoors with a Christian worldview through songs, discussions, and interactive story telling.

Testimonials
"Our daughter is currently in her second year at Camp Chestnut Ridge and we have been very happy with the experience. We were looking for a non-classroom preschool program that focused on socialization, active play and confidence building. The change in our daughter has been remarkable. She is so much stronger and confident, and she actively seeks out kids to play with at the parks and playgrounds now. The teachers are thoughtful and genuinely caring, and they put a lot of effort into building a community around the program through events and volunteer opportunities. We will be sad to leave CCR after this year but look forward to returning when our younger kid is of age."
