We are the Brooklyn Preschool of Science.

A place to grow, play, and learn through hands-on, inquiry-based science.

Brooklyn Preschool of Science is a place where curiosity leads the way. Our STEM-focused preschool and daycare programs provide children with hands-on learning experiences that inspire exploration, creativity, and discovery. Serving families in Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, and Park Slope, we combine science-based learning with literacy, mathematics, art, and social-emotional development to create a well-rounded early childhood education experience.

At our Brooklyn preschool, children learn by asking questions, making observations, conducting experiments, building simple machines, exploring nature, and investigating the world around them. Through inquiry-based learning, children develop critical thinking skills, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning while building a strong foundation for kindergarten and future academic success.

We believe early exposure to STEM education helps children become creative problem-solvers and independent thinkers. Our classrooms encourage children to observe, predict, measure, test ideas, and collaborate with their peers in meaningful ways. Whether they are studying insects, excavating for fossils, exploring biodiversity, or participating in hands-on science projects, every day offers a new opportunity for discovery.

Families searching for a preschool or daycare in Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, and Park Slope, and surrounding Brooklyn neighborhoods, choose Brooklyn Preschool of Science because of our unique approach to early childhood education. Our nurturing teachers, engaging curriculum, and science-centered learning environment help children grow academically, socially, and emotionally while maintaining the joy and wonder that make childhood so special.

At Brooklyn Preschool of Science, we don’t just teach children facts—we teach them how to think, explore, and discover.

Why Science?

Why is the sky blue? Why do flowers need water? Children ask questions endlessly. Science taps into their deep need to learn about how the world works.

Science connects easily to math, language, artistic expression, and social studies. It’s the perfect core for an integrated curriculum.

Open-ended science activities at our preschools in Brooklyn engage children at a wide range of developmental levels. They also let teachers observe and respond to children’s individual strengths and needs.

Positive early experiences with STEM subjects have been shown to contribute to future success in school and life. Hence, preschool in Brooklyn NY builds strong STEM foundations. Families exploring Preschools Park slope options often choose us for our innovative, hands-on approach to science and discovery.

My daughter went here for 3K and we absolutely loved this school. As a dermatologist, I appreciated the learning through science. This school is a step above the rest!

We have been a BPOS Family since September 2023 and couldn't be happier. During our first tour with Carmelo Piazza, we immediately knew BPOS was a special place. Over the last couple years, we've had the privilege of watching our son flourish in his classrooms (both PK2 and PK3). Every aspect of the BPOS approach is intentional and well executed. The foundation of a science and math based education during these formative years is incredible. It is such a joy to see our son apply lessons he's learning in the classroom to real life scenarios and get excited to talk about them at home. The BPOS approach to teaching is a rewarding philosophy and makes learning fun for children. We were immediately impressed with the integration of specialists (physical movement, foreign language, dance/music) at such a young age. This programming makes every day exciting for our son and his classmates and we love asking questions about each class. The faculty support and administrative staff is also truly remarkable. Since Day 1, we've felt supported and heard. I can't say enough about all the wonderful things they do for BPOS families. They encourage us to be involved, collaborative and forward with our thoughts and questions. The BPOS faculty leverages the BrightWheel app which makes communication and awareness on a daily basis seamless. Parent involvement is celebrated and the teachers take their responsibilities as educational navigators seriously. They spark joy, encourage creativity and support children throughout their development. Every single staff member at BPOS is kind, welcoming, warm and wonderful to work with. It makes being a parent there so easy. Overall, we couldn't be happier with our experience. Every aspect of the BPOS approach is phenomenal and we've already signed our younger son up for their 2's program this Fall 2025. Thank you to everyone at BPOS for their tremendous care in all that they do to make children, parents and families feel like a special member of the community. Thank you Carmelo & BPOS!!!

Great teachers, great initiatives, great administration! The Brooklyn Preschool of Science has been fantastic. It was amazing to our son come home, pick up a toy, and drop it at our feet and say: “Gravity!” Or after the class raised a butterfly and released it, while reading him The Very Hungry Caterpillar, to have him point at the cocoon near the end and say “chrysalis”. And their initiatives are not limited to science, they also have music, language, and physical activities. Most importantly, the teachers and administration all truly care about the development of their students. Carmelo and his staff will take time to meet with both parents and students on an individual basis. Highly recommended.

We spent a wonderful five years as part of the BPOS family, with both our kids attending through pre-K. There was not one day our kids were sad to leave us at their classroom- every day they were happy and excited to learn and see their teachers and friends. We always felt confident in their safety and educational/social experience there. Every single teacher and staff member is warm, caring and knowledgeable. I remember how lucky I felt when my oldest was accepted there, and how sad I was when our time was over with our youngest’s pre-k graduation. What a special place, and how lucky we were to be part of the BPOS community.

Our 2 yo went to BPOS and it was the best decision and money spent. The teachers are warm and experienced. The other families and other children were amazing. Our little one was given the attention and direction needed to learn and grow an immense amount over that year. Grateful to the thought, care and dedication to science. The owner Carmelo is on site many days, all the admin knowing everyone by name and greet everyone equally in the mornings. All the teachers (we were in Ms. Brianna’s class) are everythin and put so much thought and energy into each day and week. BPOS also utilize Brightwheel which is a wonderful communication tool. I looked forward to the 1pm photo drop every day!

You can tell just by walking into the school the amount of investment that goes back into making it a really fun environment for the kiddos. I went on other school tours but BPOS had a different energy that other schools lacked. Kids ran up to the director as he gave tour because they were so excited to see him. And he gives the tour with a lot of passion. The greetings every morning are warm, the curriculum is stem focused and fun. It’s so impressive what they are able to teach to such young children at this school. Family is a big focus at this school, and I feel part of the community just as much as my little scientist is!

My daughter Liora started this Feb at the BPOS on Wykoff. Liora was just two when she began so it was obviously a tough transition. The staff at BPOS was SO wonderful and loving that within weeks Lia was excited and anxious to go to school. I cannot say enough amazing things about our experience, the thoughtful and creative curriculum AND the difference in the way my daughter speaks and things she's learned in only 4.5 months. I wholeheartedly recommend this school! Jess (mom to Liora)

It’s the best & most equipped pre-school in the entire district. You get back what you pay as it’s top notch programming & kids are exposed to a science integrated curriculum, athletics, Spanish music & yoga specialists. They have puppeteers & African animal 🦔 rescuers visiting the school. They have so many fun theme days for the kids! It bled our pockets but we were paying for programming that is definitely worth it, my son is nurtured in a safe & loving environment without any undesired indoctrination of any kind. BPOS is sensitive to the different cultures and backgrounds for kids. My son got exposed to things that I have never been exposed to and learns so much everyday! Every day there is something special in that school. I am so happy that I enrolled him there. I truly believe it’s the best, I actually take the subway from Park Slope to bring my son there, because out of all the schools I researched and visited, nothing beats it, especially with what they have to offer. Look no further & trust me on this because I am a previous educator, and know a great school when I see one. I feel blessed that my son went to BPOS this year because I know he’s getting the best experience and education. They really do have the most caring staff too. It’s a great community. I hope that BPOS would keep their high standards. My son frequently comes home with gifts & toys from the school. It’s like Christmas every day :)) he loves it there & is always happy & smiling telling me about the exciting things he’s done or seen, or what animals he pet! I wish I went to a school like that when I was younger lol 😂
