Fullerton Community Nursery School is a warm, nurturing school that provides a place for children to develop social skills and cultivate curiosity to help maximize later education. We respect each child for his/her unique individuality and accept his/her learning pace. We know the importance of play and will not rush children through the experiences of being a child.

The teachers at this school are Miss Micky, Miss Melissa, and Miss Jackie.

Miss Micky teaches our three year-old class and has been teaching at FCNS since 1991. She earned an Early Childhood Teaching certificate from Fullerton College and attained over 24 units in Child Development.

Miss Melissa has been teaching for more than 28 years. She has a bachelor's degree in Child and Adolescent Development. Melissa started working at FCNS in 2018 as a long-term sub. She is now the teacher of our Parent/Toddler Class and the school's Director.

Miss Jackie has been working with young children since 2014, and has been an elementary tutor for almost 6 years. She is working to obtain her Bachelor's degree in Communications with a minor in Child Development from Cal State Fullerton. She is currently taking child development units at Santa Ana Community College.

The 2023-2024 monthly tuition is $212 for two days a week, $314 for three days a week, and $500 for 5 days a week. Tuition may be subject to a slight increase annually.

There are various other obligations parents must meet. This is a co-op. Parents are expected to attend 5 mandatory meetings as well as participate in each housekeeping and maintenance one time per child. All of this is explained in detail at the school's orientation and there are frequent reminders. Working together allows us to get to know each other and benefits your child's early education and school.

This depends on how many children you have attending the school and how many days your child attends. Generally, you will be scheduled for 1-2 shifts if your child is enrolled for 2 days, 2-3 shifts for 3 days, and 3-4 shifts for 5 day enrollment per month.

In a word, no. Most children here have siblings both younger and older. On a work day you must make arrangements for siblings.

Please bring your child a simple, healthy snack and a water bottle labeled with your child's name to school daily. As health risks involving nut allergies have increased, for the safety of our students and staff we do not allow peanut or peanut butter for snack during standard school hours of 9am-12pm.

The school provides all of the supplies and the idea. However, if you have an idea for an art project please share it with the teachers.
