Shomrei Torah Synagogue and Temple Aliyah are excited to partner together in creating The Nook on Valley Circle – a full day infant and toddler center for the youngest members of our community. Offering a high-quality comprehensive program, The Nook will be staffed by caring and committed teachers with strong educational training that nurtures each child’s curiosity, potential and growth. 

Babies learn and grow best by exploring the world around them. Our newly renovated classrooms encourage babies to explore their world through their senses, while stimulating motor skill development and creating learning opportunities at every stage of growth. With an equally beautiful outdoor play area, our children will be encouraged to explore the outside world in an experiential, hands-on way.

We recognize the individual needs of each child and their family, and will offer low child to teacher ratio in order to promote the creation of deep connections and attachments.

The Nook will focus on your child’s development as well as your own. We also invite grandparents on this journey with us. We have a warm and inviting Parent Room for parenting and grandparenting classes that will be led by specialists in infant and child development, and as a place to drop in for support along your parenting journey. Parents will have opportunities to learn about the physical, cognitive, emotional, and social development of their children, while connecting with other families and forming a strong support system. By partnering with parents and grandparents during their child’s time with us, we will enhance connections between school and home.

While our approach to our young learners will be grounded in Jewish values and traditions, The Nook on Valley Circle will be open to all children, regardless of their family’s personal religious beliefs.

We look forward to being part of your upcoming parenting adventure and invite you to contact us using the online inquiry form or calling us at 818-854-7693 for additional information.
