  • We have been absolutely delighted with ORNS! My toddler attends part time. We love his teachers, staff ratios are great, staff are welcoming and helpful, even the other parents and kiddos that we’ve met are lovely. The best is my son is excited to go to school and talks about his friends and teachers at home. We hope to send our second kiddo when he’s old enough to attend!

  • My son is in his first year at ORNS, and he's really enjoying it. The school has a really nice community feel, and his teacher is so experienced, welcoming, calm, and confident. They have a wonderful selection of rotating toys and gym equipment, as well as a nice outdoor area with playground equipment, sand area, and places for pretend play. Highly recommend!

  • We’ve sent both our daughters to ORNS for 3 and 4K. I cannot speak highly enough about the wonderful staff! Our youngest has separation anxiety and they’ve been so wonderful at initiating a customized, evidenced-based plan for her. The teachers and director have great communication and you can see the passion and dedication they have for these kids everyday. We love ORNS!

  • We are so happy to be a second year ORNS family. It came highly recommended. The whole staff is kind, caring, and knows both of my kids! They even took on the task of some medical stuff with my kid, with no prior experience. This has been a great place to watch our kids flourish and grow. Couldn’t ask for better from a non-profit preschool!

  • Could not recommend ORNS more. Our son absolutely loves 4K here. The student to staff ratio is great, they have a wonderful gym and outdoor space for gross motor development and you can tell that the staff love their job and the children. Very positive environment with a great staff retention rate. Beyond the fabulous curriculum, facility and teachers, when my husband had some health issues the staff were incredibly flexible and supportive with accommodating medical appointments and pick up times. Add in that the rates are very reasonable and drop off/pick up times are incredibly flexible to fit your family's schedule, you cannot go wrong sending your child here.

  • Our time at Orchard Ridge has been the best! Both my children have attended and I cannot think of a single negative thing about ORNS! The staff is so caring and kind, from the moment we walked through the doors we felt like part of a family! Our kids have loved every moment and we love the play based learning, I wish I had a school like this when I was growing up! We have life long friends and memories thanks to this incredible little preschool!

Questions parents ask about ORCHARD RIDGE NURSERY SCHOOL

Is ORCHARD RIDGE NURSERY SCHOOL a licensed child care provider in Wisconsin?

ORCHARD RIDGE NURSERY SCHOOL holds Wisconsin licence 2000577812-001, listed as "LICENSED" by the Wisconsin Department of Children and Families in Dane County, licensed since 1998-03-01. Confirm current standing on the state's provider search at childcarefinder.wisconsin.gov before enrolling.

What is ORCHARD RIDGE NURSERY SCHOOL's YoungStar rating?

YoungStar rates ORCHARD RIDGE NURSERY SCHOOL 5 stars out of five. The rating covers staff education, the learning environment, business practices and child well-being, not inspection outcomes, and it is separate from the licence.

What are ORCHARD RIDGE NURSERY SCHOOL's hours?

The state directory lists 07:30 AM-05:00 PM, Jan-Dec, full time. Wisconsin records the daily window but not which days it applies to, and hours change without the licence record changing, so call ahead.

What ages does ORCHARD RIDGE NURSERY SCHOOL take?

The licence covers 2 years 3 months to 6 years 11 months. That is the span Wisconsin licenses the provider for, not a list of the rooms it runs, so ask which age groups it is actually staffing.

Does this page show inspection results for ORCHARD RIDGE NURSERY SCHOOL?

No. Wisconsin publishes licensing violations for each provider, and none of them are included here, so nothing on this page reflects ORCHARD RIDGE NURSERY SCHOOL's inspection history either way. Read the violation record on the state's provider search at childcarefinder.wisconsin.gov.
