  - do you know from first hand experience about either place? I am Jewish so not too concerned about the religious aspects of PSA - its just not a priority for me. I read some neg. things about Buckle My Shoe on here but no specifics

- If you are not religious you should go with Buckle. There are many Jewish holidays that Chabad will be closed for that you probably are not even aware of.

- if you are not that religious, have you thought about the JCP in Tribeca?

- My DS went to Buckle My Shoe. It's a decent preschool based on Reggio Emilio principles. The West Village location is small (only three classes with 10 kids each) but very cozy. The new head teacher is really good.
