Welcome to Garrett Park Nursery School​

For over 70 years, we have been a second home for families seeking a warm, play-based cooperative preschool. Located in the historic heart of Garrett Park, MD, our campus is a convenient gathering place for families from North Bethesda, Kensington, Rockville, and Silver Spring.
As a parent-led co-op, we don't just enroll children; we build a supportive community. Our dedicated teachers and engaged parents work together to foster each child’s social, emotional, and academic development. Through hands-on activities, creative expression, and outdoor play, children build the confidence and independence they need for kindergarten and beyond.

Conveniently Located for Montgomery County Families

Our quiet neighborhood setting offers a safe, traffic-free environment just minutes from Rockville Pike and Connecticut Avenue.
Families join us from across Montgomery County, including Garrett Park, Bethesda, North Bethesda, Rockville, White Flint, Kensington, North Kensington, Potomac, Potomac Village, Silver Spring, Forest Glen, Wheaton, Glenmont, Aspen Hill, Chevy Chase Village, and Chevy Chase.
