Birdsall House is a small childcare center located in Midtown and ready to grow.  We offer a unique experience for children to experience the joy of childhood, like generation in the past.  Our curriculum is based on the science of brain and child development, the wisdom of Magda Gerber and influence of the Reggio Emilia method.  Our students learn naturally with the help of the environment and the older students that they play with. Reminiscent of playing and learning from sibling and neighborhood children, like generations before. When it is time to start kindergarten, our students are not only ready, but also excited to learn.  We have been in operation for 8 years with a great supportive board.  We are now ready to grow and are hoping to find board members who can help us with our growth.
