It is my great privilege to write this note on behalf of Nyla Kamlet and her extraordinary program, Play Together NYC.

Nyla Kamlet is a talented and dedicated educator who excels at working with a diverse student population. I am impressed at the level of thoughtfulness, care and preparation that Nyla gives to every aspect of her program and to each and every student.

Nyla is an innovator with an uncanny ability to plan appropriate level of instruction and guidance to meet the needs of her individual students. She uses a variety of strategies, lessons and projects to get the most out of her students while remaining sensitive to their individual developmental needs. Using innovative activities and creative strategies, Nyla encourages children to engage in imaginative creative play. Whether they choose to play alone or with others, Nyla guides them in positive social interactions. I cannot imagine a more loving, creative, and nurturing environment for a child’s first significant learning experience than Play Together NYC.

On a personal level, Nyla is bright, conscientious and caring; she is impresses me as a woman of good character and the utmost integrity.

I cannot possibly my gratitude enough for the enormous contributions Nyla’s made to my family both personally and professionally. She has earned our family’s love, respect, admiration and highest recommendation.

Yours truly,
David Nayor

"I feel fortunate to have had my daughter, Rebecca, attend Play Together NYC with Nyla Kamlet.  Play Together NYC is a wonderful pre-nursery school alternative and I highly recommend it.  Not only is Nyla's background in child education impressive but just as impressive is her genuine warmth and compassion that radiates in everything she does.  Nyla is delightful and extremely nurturing with children.  Rebecca loved playing with Nyla and thrived in her care."

As an experienced teacher, I felt fortunate to have found Nyla's playgroup.  It was a fantastic playgroup for my daughter and I was so happy with how it was organized and run.  I credit it with boosting my daughter's self confidence tremendously.  She is now more comfortable conversing and playing with other children.  She learned the skills to play comfortably and to negotiate various play scenarios.

Nyla provided a warm, nurturing environment, in which she was able to encourage the children gently, while maintaining their comfort level.  She knew just how to approach my daughter in the morning so that she felt comfortable entering the classroom without me. 

My daughter quickly learned the routine for the morning and what was expected of her.  All of the activities were age appropriate and creative. My daughter was engaged, encouraged and felt good about herself.  She also loved singing all of the new songs that she learned from Nyla's playgroup. 

My daughter was always excited about going to Nyla's playgroup and came home so happy after it.  I would highly recommend it to anybody with a 2-3 year old.

I know Nyla Kamlet's supervised play programs quite well. My son Joseph went to her while her groups were first forming.
Our son used to have difficulty separating and socializing. He needed to learn how to process and express his feeling and interact with other children in a group setting.
It was really through Nyla's program that Joe began to thrive. He has now developed into a more independent, communicative and confident child.....
I think she has the perfect recipe for success with young children - a background in child psychotherapy, a passion for children and education as well as compassion for parents.
I'm eternally grateful for the help she gave us with Joseph and her support.
You certainly can't go wrong with her Play Together NYC Program..

• Pros: Small setting perfect for young children.
• Cons: Can' think of one yet
