9Our early childhood program has a curriculum and daily plan of activities designed to foster the social, emotional, intellectual and physical development of your child.
Our website was designed to give you specific information about our school and program. If you have any questions or concerns, the staff will always be available to answer them.
We look forward to having your child be a part of our program. Educating your child is a shared responsibility. We welcome your cooperation during this very special time in your child’s life.

Small World North was founded September 1976. Our non-sectarian school and curriculum is approved by the New York State Department of Education as well as Yonkers Board of Education.
Small World North has always been recognized for its small class sizes. Our school is staffed by qualified and dedicated teachers. An innovative and flexible curriculum is planned by each teacher. It is our goal to help build a solid foundation for future success.
In addition to our classroom teachers, we also staff teachers' aides to assist in classrooms when necessary.
Each of our classrooms at Small World have been carefully planned to provide a stimulating atmosphere where real learning exists.
The classrooms are equipped with a variety of "hands on" manipulative toys to further enhance small motor development. In addition to this, each classroom has very defined areas of play. These include a learning circle area, block corner, truck/car area, kitchen center, doll corner and book nook.
Cleanliness has always been a high priority at Small World. Our school is cleaned each evening by a professional cleaning service. Antiseptic cleaners are used to help prevent the spread of germs.
