Located in the heart of Boston, Beacon Hill Nursery School leases the entire ground floor and space on the second and third floors at Hill House, a 19th century brick building. BHNS children take full advantage of the School's location in the heart of Boston.

Classrooms
Because children best master and integrate information through first-hand experience, play using real materials has a major role at BHNS. Each classroom is equipped with a book area, a science area, a computer, a water/sand table, a dramatic play area, art supplies, large and small blocks, and a variety of manipulative materials and games.

Library
One of our primary goals is to foster a love of reading and writing. Our Library is central to this, housing over 3,500 books, tapes and videos for children. Each class enjoys a weekly library time; library books are also used for daily storytimes, and to furnish the Book Area in each classroom.

Play Areas
We have two custom-designed, on-site playgrounds, where children play daily, honing their gross motor skills, exercising both their bodies and their imaginations. We also have daily access to a newly renovated gym for creative movement and dramatic play, special events, and where children can run and play in inclement weather.

Lunchroom
We use a large, multi-purpose room for lunch, meetings, and special projects and activities.
