A UCLA-affiliated school for the children of UCLA faculty, staff and students.


UPNS is a parent participation nursery school for children ages 2 through 5. UPNS is a developmental program and is accredited by NAEYC (the National Academy for the Education of the Young Child).  UPNS is also a member of LACCPPNS (the Los Angeles Council of Parent Participation Nursery Schools).

Because we take care of the children of UCLA students, faculty, and staff, we offer flexible schedules, ranging from 3 half days (7:30 am to 12:30 am or 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm) to 5 full days (7:30 am to 5:30 pm).  Parents have the option of selecting the days of the week they would like their child to attend school.

UPNS has three classrooms and two play-yards.  The classes are divided by age group: the 2-year olds have their own class and yard.  The 3-year olds and 4-year olds also have their own classrooms, and share a larger play-yard.

UPNS is located in the University Village Child Care Complex, which is also the home of UCLA Child Care Services.  The complex is located in the heart of University Village.
