Welcome to The Park Forest Day Nursery Preschool

The Park Forest Day Nursery Preschool is a nonprofit, tuition-free school for two, three, and four-year-old children from low-income families.  We offer a comprehensive program that includes education, social skills, and developmental motor skills taught by qualified teachers in a friendly, safe environment.  In each classroom there are one to three teacher aides, providing additional attention. red_room_3
