We named our institution “The nest preschool” as Nest symbolizes warmth, love, growth and protection. We believe every child is entitled to grow and learn in a safe and secure environment. Teaching and caring for children is our passion. Just like you we would also love to watch our precious little ones doing good in their developmental milestones. To achieve this we focus on their social, emotional, physical and cognitive development through various fun and engaging activities.

Home school Connection
We have an open door policy, parent are welcome to call or drop to see their little one during school hour. We encourage this especially to new parents. The child’s first and most influential teacher is the parent. We encourage parent’s involvement in school as we believe learning becomes more effective with join effort.
We believe in the DAP approach. (Developmentally Appropriate practice) As we know every child is unique so is their development pace. At Nest all teaching practices are appropriate to the ages and developmental level of children. Besides our early childhood program which is structured, play_ based learning we also work on our planned curriculum which includes as following.
STEM: The acronym STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
STEM is a curriculum where children can understand the world and relate to it. It helps children to make connections between their everyday lives. STEM based education can support children’s early science and mathematics concept. It introduces new concept through games and activities which is more hands - on learning rather than only reading about them. At Nest we have designed STEM program which is developmentally appropriate.

Thematic teaching approach to teaching is integrating and connecting
all subject areas together under one theme. Teaching thematically helps
children make sense of concepts, provide life skills, academic skills, develop
critical thinking and provide ample of opportunities for children to learn
social, cognitive, emotional and physical development. At Nest our thematic
unit are divided monthly which are relevant in the context of Nepal.
