Come and grow with us!
The preschool years are crucial to a child’s overall development. Children are constantly learning and absorbing information. Because learning takes place in every experience and situation, New Friends Nursery School provides rich, meaningful learning experiences that enhance each child’s intellectual, physical, emotional and spiritual growth.
We strive to provide a loving and caring environment where children can play and learn through a combination of structured and unstructured activities.

2021 Best of Harleysville: Best Preschool. The Best of Harleysville Award Program honors the achievements and positive contributions of businesses and organizations in and around Harleysville. We are thrilled to receive this honor!
