MSKCC Children's Center

Early Education & Preschool That's More than Daycare

Welcome to the MSKCC Children’s Center! We are a small and welcoming center located on beautiful Roosevelt Island, serving the families of MSKCC. Our recently renovated, state-of-the-art facility offers bright, thoughtfully designed classrooms and a private playground that extends learning through active outdoor play. Children enjoy daily walks and buggy rides in our safe, scenic neighborhood, surrounded by nature and calm. Inside the classroom, our experienced teachers bring the Bright Horizons® curriculum to life, supporting whole-child development through play, exploration, and meaningful relationships. We invite you to meet our dedicated team and discover a nurturing start to your child’s early learning journey!

Health, Safety, and Wellness at Our Center

Your child’s safety and wellness is our top priority. We continue to monitor state and local public health guidelines, look to our medical expert, and use our considerable experience to guide our health and safety practices. Our centers take important steps to ensure the very best for every child, and the Health and Wellness portion of our World at Their Fingertips® curriculum incorporates lessons about these essential topics into every classroom, every day.

Our Community

Most of our families reside in MSKCC's Roosevelt Island housing. We are located in one of the MSKCC Roosevelt Island housing buildings and a short walk from the others, easy to get to for drop-off and pick-up before going to work.
