The primary difference between nursery schools and day care is that nursery school programs are planned to foster social and cognitive development of young children. Nursery schools are usually half-day programs with 2-3 adults supervising a class of 15-20 children. A key concept of nursery schools is readiness training, which is where the students/children will learn skills that will prepare them for formal instruction later. Such skills as following directions, sticking to one task, cooperating with others and displaying good manners are taught and practiced.

The child grows socially through play, sharing and cooperating with other children in a supervised learning environment. The child grows emotionally by learning to channel their emotions constructively, by increasing their independence in meeting and solving problems, through the growth of self-esteem.
