Ground 'Broken' On New Preschool In Warrington Township
A two story building on Kansas Road will be renovated over the summer to include 11 classrooms and flex space for learning.
WARRINGTON - A new preschool is scheduled to open its doors in Warrington Township later this summer.
On June 22, Nita Solanki joined family, friends and local business and township leaders to ceremoniously break ground for the new Celebree School, which will be opening at the site of the former Children of America at 590 Kansas Road.
“We are so excited to be bringing exceptional childcare to the Warrington area,” said Solanki, who has lived in Bucks County for 40 years, moving from Bristol to Newtown and more recently to Warrington.

Solanki thanked Warrington Township "for welcoming us to Bucks County. Your township places an importance on the education of our children," she said. "It is wonderful to be a part of such an amazing place where people are willing to invest in children and provide great facilities to attend school, learn and develop their gifts."
The two story building will be renovated over the summer into Bucks County’s first Celebree School with 11 classrooms and flex space where children can concentrate on scientific and mathematical thinking. The new school will serve youngsters from infancy through school-age.

"We will be another resource in the community for families who are in need of high quality child care services where children will not only be nurtured and protected, but a place where they will be educated," said Solanki. "Our curriculum offers a STEAM approach, a comprehensive day care curriculum that will welcome children while introducing them to a lifetime love of learning.
"The education we are going to provide to the children will help them transition into kindergarten, and getting them ready for elementary school. I could have not envisioned a better business than this."
After 25 years in the corporate world, Solanki left her job to refocus her attention on a new career in early childhood education.
“For me, it was stepping out of my comfort zone and starting something that I always knew I would love and do,” she said.
“We have a five year old son and a nine year old daughter who went through the preschool environment. They were my inspiration to look into childcare and hopefully I will be able to provide that same love and care as the other institutions provided to my children,” she said.
After a thorough investigation, the Bucks County resident decided on the Maryland-based Celebree School as her franchise.
“It was imperative to me to find a franchise that not only had a setting where parents feel comfortable leaving their children, but also embedded an educational background into the child and their development,” said Solanki.
“This brand puts a lot of effort into the curriculum. And it places a value on individualizing education for each child,” said Solanki.
The new school is slated to open in late summer or early fall of this year.
“Our approach to early childhood education is a holistic one,” explained Solanki. “Because children are capable of absorbing information on many levels, we emphasize educating the whole child.
“Children need to develop emotionally and academically, but the stage needs to beset so they have a platform from which to rise and meet life’s challenges. We will also help prepare them to be contributing members of society,” she said. “That begins with teaching them to value
themselves, recognize their abilities, and respect others.”
Over the next several months, parents can watch the renovations progress as the space transitions into the newest Celebree School. “We we are posting pictures of the renovations on our Facebook page so the public can follow our transformation,” said Solanki.
