 Our Mission: Morningside PlayCare cultivates the language genius, open mindedness, and wonder-filled hearts of young children.

Our Philosophy: Since the work of childhood is play, we believe young children thrive in nurturing, fun environments with space to create, imagine, play and explore.  We believe in the power of nature and human creativity in developing mind and spirit.  And, since children are geniuses at learning languages, we think they should play, explore, and create in as many languages as they have the capacity to acquire.   Our curriculum is spiritually conscious, which means we are comfortable exploring such concepts as respect for all living things, love, gratitude, and mindfulness.  We wonder about everything.

​Giving children the gift of multilingualism in early childhood and helping them to sustain and acquire habits of mind which support their human development, can change the course of their lives and the world for the greater good.
