About
Our School
Kinder Shuvah is a warm, Torah-centered early childhood program serving children from 3 months to 6 years old in the heart of Los Angeles. For over a decade, Kinder Shuvah has guided children to grow with confidence, curiosity, and a love for Yiddishkeit. More than a preschool, Kinder Shuvah is a second home, a community, and a launchpad for lifelong Jewish identity.
Mission
To cultivate each child's soul, mind, and character through immersive Torah education, developmental excellence, and loving, individualized care.
Vision
To build a unified model of Jewish education that merges home, school, and synagogue into one seamless experience—where every Jewish child is known, loved, and inspired to thrive spiritually, emotionally, and intellectually.
At the heart of our vision is identity. We believe that every child must first understand who they are—"I'm a girl, I'm a boy, I'm a Jew"—and feel empowered and proud in that identity. Before engaging with the wider world, a child needs the strength and clarity of self. At Kinder Shuvah, we provide that foundation with love and joy.

Looking Ahead
Kinder Shuvah is the foundation of a greater vision: Shuva Israel School, a unified synagogue-school model that will grow into a full elementary program. Our new building at 1818 Robertson Blvd. will house this dream—with classrooms, specialty spaces, and a seamless pipeline from Gan to Torah maturity.
Kinder Shuvah is more than a Gan. It's a foundation for life.
