Play-based school with an academic element
At The Sherman Oaks Nursery School, we focus on each childβs individual growthβcognitively, socially, emotionally, and physicallyβby providing a nurturing environment tailored to their unique developmental needs. Just as important, we strive to create a warm, family-oriented community where children and parents feel supported, connected, and valued every step
of the way.

our community
The Sherman Oaks Nursery School (TSONS), community and belonging are at the heart of everything we do. They are foundational to our schoolβs identity and philosophy. This strong sense of connection nurtures not only childrenβs cognitive, physical, and emotional growth, but also supports their social development as they engage meaningfully with peers, teachers, and parents.
