In the building

What the space is built with.

Designed from scratch as a children's centre across two floors, not fitted into a space meant for something else.

Ten classrooms
Across two floors, from 337 to 687 square feet. Rooms stay small; the building carries the numbers.
A separate infant floor area
Nearly 1,400 square feet given over to infants alone, with its own changing and feeding counters.
Ceilings over 12 feet
On the first floor, with wood baffle ceilings through the halls to take the edge off the noise.
A tree in every classroom
A custom tree-shaped shelf, built in. The same tree two children sit under in our mark.
Bathrooms inside the rooms
Child-height toilets off the classrooms themselves, so nobody walks a two-year-old down a corridor.
Five classroom kitchenettes
Meals arrive daily from our food provider and are plated on the floor the children are on. Nut-free throughout.
Planting through the halls
Built-in planters and greenery along the ceiling runs, specified in the drawings rather than added later.
Terrazzo and wood floors
Warm wood-look vinyl in the rooms, terrazzo through the circulation, in a palette matched to the brand.

Our rooms

The rooms at Greenpoint.

3–12 months

The Nest

Floor time, feeding on your child's own schedule, and a calm room built around sleep and comfort.

1–2 years

The Grove

Walking, climbing, first words. Sensory play, music, and a great deal of water on the floor.

2–3 years

The Meadow

Pretend play, early friendships, and the beginnings of sharing a space with other people.

3 years – pre-K

The Workshop

Projects that run for weeks. Letters, numbers and clay, in whatever order the class takes them.

The neighbourhood

On the Greenpoint waterfront.

79 Quay Street sits on the corner of West Street, a few minutes from the ferry and the park.

Licensing

Every Kindred centre operates under a New York State OCFS permit. Each site's permit and inspection history is posted at reception and available on request.

Food

Meals are delivered daily by our food provider and prepped on site. Our buildings are nut-free and we accommodate allergies and dietary requirements.

Enrolment

Rolling admissions with a waitlist by room at each location. Tuition is billed monthly; a deposit holds your place from your chosen start date.

Also from Kindred

Park Slope is next.

Our second Brooklyn site, at 85 4th Avenue, opens in 2027 with the same rooms, the same approach and the same room names.
