Private Schools in Manhattan, New York
Smarter Toddler is a nursery school / preschool with 2 convenient locations in New York City. One school is located on Manhattan's Upper West Side and the other location is at Midtown West near Times Square. Smarter Toddler accepts students from 3 months to 5 years, with full or part-time options available.
Smarter Toddler was founded by parents of gifted young children who wanted a progressive preschool with an advanced arts-based curriculum that their own children could benefit from, hence the name. We are located on West 89th Street (between Columbus & Amsterdam Avenues) and West 55th Street.
Smarter Toddler was developed around the idea that quality childhood care and education should be homelike. From the vintage toys, low height lounge chairs to the homey lamps and tons of original artwork, everything was carefully designed to make children feel like they are at home.

Located in Manhattan, New York, The School for Strings has been New York’s premiere Suzuki-based music school since 1970, providing outstanding instrumental instruction in violin, cello, piano and fiddle to thousands of children and teenagers. In agreement with Dr. Shinichi Suzuki’s ideas, the School’s philosophy is that through the study of music, all children can achieve beyond their expectations.
Dr. Suzuki's educational precepts are based on his conviction that every child can be educated and the corollary assumption that every child will be educated. Success is built into his approach, both in the manner of teaching and in the choice of repertoire contained in the volumes of the Suzuki Violin, Cello and Piano Schools.
Children learn the fundamentals of classical music: rhythm, melody, harmony, tempo, dynamics and articulation. By fostering close collaboration between parents, teachers, and students, we aim to build the love of music, self-confidence, discipline and outstanding achievement in every student. In Suzuki study therefore, children learn to play their instrument at first by ear, learning the music they are to play by extensive listening to recordings of each piece.
