301-365-3190; 10010 Fernwood Road
Bethesda, MD
Hours: 9:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.
At Glenbrook, we nurture our children in
the early, formative years so they can define
themselves as individuals. We strive for this
through spontaneous play in a controlled
and time structured environment. We believe
that children can feel secure only when they
understand and trust a set of limits. Their
imagination, curiosity, and interests need time to
wander, expand, and develop within these limits.
Cooperative nursery schools are administered
and maintained by the parents, allowing
everyone to grow and learn together. The
special nature of Glenbrook is the close working
relationship between parents and teachers.
Our approach builds a sense of community and
togetherness for parents and children.
