The Fishtown School

The Fishtown School We may be small, yet we will have a big impact on your child’s life.

At The Fishtown School, we understand that choosing a child care center is one of the most important decisions you will make for your child. Our full-time daycare program for children ages three months to six years offers a school-like environment with a home-like feel to nurture and support your little one as they develop throughout their formative years.
​
Our staff is dedicated to creating a safe, warm, and fun environment for children to gain the confidence to engage in active learning and develop a lifelong thirst for knowledge. We help our students build relationships that foster respect, honesty, and caring, as well as value all cultures and lifestyles. Our foremost goal is to instill a love of learning and self-confidence in our students, focusing on the development of your child’s independence. We understand that every child is full of wonder and curiosity and encourage our students to use all of their senses to explore and learn about the world around them. Our small teacher-to-student ratio allows our teachers to provide a stimulating environment geared to each individual child’s interests and needs. Accordingly, our classrooms are divided into areas for dramatic play, building, toys, games, art, music, books, and writing.

​Our teachers love their students and are passionate about teaching. We mix play and hands-on learning to engage your child’s natural curiosity about the world around them. Instilling the love of learning and fostering a sense of self-confidence is our foremost goal. Working together we strive to make learning at The Fishtown School the very best experience for each and every child.

Happy Father’s Day!

Today, our entire school community stands together to salute, celebrate, and honor all of the incredible Fathers both past and present who have led the way for our families and our little ones! 👔✨

We want to take a moment to look at the powerful foundation you have built. To the grandfathers, fathers, and father-figures who came before, and to the dads within our school today: your experiences and your values have paved the beautiful pathway that continues to bring us forward.

We are forever grateful to have your presence, your wisdom, and your light within our beloved community. You are the anchors of our homes and the pillars of our school family.

To every Daddio who has ever blessed our circle we see you, we honor you, and we appreciate you today and every single day! Happy Father’s Day! 🎉💙
