Community, curiosity, and joy—what a day! Huge thanks to Bay Area Discovery Museum for hosting NMCS families for a special Community Day on May 9! From a slime and ocean animals station to creative gross motor and hands-on exhibits with mud kitchens, train stations, and take-home activations, kids had a blast learning through play.

The museum generously provided a school bus and free entry—making this day of exploration accessible to all. We’re so grateful for their partnership in helping our families discover new spaces to grow, connect, and have fun together. 🌱💜

This Teacher Appreciation Week, we proudly celebrate the incredible educators who make such a lasting impact on our children and families each and every day.

Our teachers do so much more than teach — they help shape developing minds, foster creativity and curiosity through play, build important life skills, and create safe, supportive environments where every child feels valued and cared for. Their patience, compassion, and dedication help lay the foundation for lifelong learning and growth.

We are deeply grateful for all they do for our NMCS children and families, not just this week, but every week. Please join us in thanking our amazing teachers for the heart, care, and passion they bring to their work every single day. ❤️

NMCS' ECE Manager Michelle Keane, and TK Teacher, Andrea Martinez, presented at the 2026 California Association for the Education of Young Children (CAAEYC) Annual Conference in Pasadena. This year's conference theme was centered around Cultivating Relationships: Children, Families, & Educators in Community. Michelle and Andrea represented NMCS' Child Development Program in a 90-minute workshop to 100+ early childhood professionals, providing impactful strategies intended to boost staff satisfaction, center teacher voice, and foster genuine team connection. They highlighted several practices that the Child Development Program, and NMCS as a whole, have successfully implemented to create a collaborative and child-centered culture. Thank you to Michelle and Andrea for representing NMCS and being such a valuable part of both the organization and the larger ECE community! 💜
