As the back-to-school season approaches and parents and caregivers of Washington’s youngest residents seek early learning opportunities, a new preschool in Georgetown is set to welcome up to 80 children for its inaugural academic year.
Opening on Sept. 2 in Hamilton Court at 1230 31st Street NW, Suite 100, the Georgetown Preschool will feature seven classrooms where the emphasis is on learning through hands-on activities and play.
With the slogan, “Where little lions learn and grow,” the Georgetown Preschool will care for children between the ages of 6 weeks and 5 years, with several licensed preschool teachers on staff. Hours will be Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
Founder Farah Kuraishi’s goal was to provide area children with a supportive environment. “We’re thrilled to bring this vision to life in one of D.C.’s most vibrant neighborhoods,” Kuraishi said.
According to press materials: “At Georgetown Preschool, we understand the importance of providing a nurturing and secure environment for your little ones. Our licensed daycare center is dedicated to fostering the growth and development of infants to toddlers, guiding them through their earliest years with love and care.”
Images shared with The Georgetowner show a wide range of toys and hands-on activities, including trains and a train track, walls with building blocks, a space-themed wall fixture and toy musical instruments.

The Georgetown Preschool is also seeking experienced educators for available positions. According to the school’s website, those hired will receive inclusive health insurance and retirement benefits.
