We met each other about one month ago when visiting your school for my son, Cayden. He has just started to attend ThumBelina this week and seems very excited. My husband and I have noticed already some improvements that one day of school has made. I asked him, “What did you learn at school today?” and he said, “I learn sharing.”
Thank you for taking me on a tour that other day and for kindly accepting my son at your school this year. I hope to have a pleasure to meet you again in the future.
Thank you so much for being a part of my farewell dinner, and for the card and gifts. It was a very special night for me.
I didn’t know your email address but knew I could find Tom Thumb’s. I had fun looking at the photos on your website. It brought back memories of when my kids went there. Amazing that Ann Gaspari is still a part of the school. You do a great job year after year with the school and I wish you many more years of success.
You were always a fun partner at tennis too. I really like that you never give up and keep encouraging your partner too. I miss those afternoon games.
I hope you have a wonderful holiday and a great 2016.
“It’s always wonderful to hear about our Tom Thumb graduates. We never tire of the accolades from both parents and Lakeland Kindergarten teachers. But, it shouldn’t be a surprise.Tom Thumb Preschool is a private school since 1968. All our classes and activities are lead by experienced NYS accredited teachers. We provide the first formal schooling┬á for kids and make it a fun experience for a lifetime of learning.” Nancy Brophy

Subject: Thank you!
Good Morning Mrs. Brophy,
This is a belated Thank You email for everything you did for my son Jason who graduated last year from Tom Thumb. My wife and I knew he was in great hands when we picked him up and dropped him off every day; but as we sit here nearly a year later watching him develop and grow in Kindergarten, we feel a tremendous amount of gratitude for what you and your team provided to Jason.
He’s doing great at Primrose, even scoring a 97 on his STAR exams. In fact, even his teachers have mentioned that they don’t feel their curriculum challenges him as much as it should…he breezes through it, so they will be coming up with new things for him to learn. From his confidence to his love of music, reading and math abilities, social interaction – all the foundations you and your team laid out, have given him a wonderful footing to build upon. He still talks about Tom Thumb with a great big smile and tells us how much he misses it.
A sincere thank you. You made a great difference in yet another young life!
Tom Thumb students are getting ready for the 2016 Mini-Olympics. We have queued the music and our students are walking-through this year’s program at Dynamic Gymnastics. We are rehearsing and having fun by participating with skilled games. Our kids are practicing those games that are included in the program. Each Mini-Olympics game is a little competitive playful activity and a fun challenge for both fine and gross motor skills. We are preparing to perform in front of parents at this year’s Mini-Olympics.
Please support our Tom Thumb students with cheers, smiles and applause at our 2016 Mini-Olympics that’s scheduled in March for Seniors and in May for Juniors. See the Tom Thumb Calendar for more details.
UPDATE: Tom Thumb Campus now has room at our facilities to accommodate therapists who need to see children that will receive special services (for: speech, occupational therapy and physical therapy). Tom Thumb will provide access and facility space for those therapists that have been authorized by parents for scheduled sessions with their child.
For those therapists interested or parents that want to schedule time for their child’s therapist, please contact Nancy Cappello directly at (914) 528-5600.
