631 VETERANS OF FOREIGN WARS PKWY CHESTNUT HILL, MA

SolBe is an early learning center in Chestnut Hill, MA that reimagines traditional notions of child care and nursery school. Our name defines our purpose: “sol” from the Spanish word meaning sun and the English word “be”, combining into a name meaning “to be full of light”. Learning is not the filling of a cup, but the lighting of a fire. We aim to create the highest quality early learning experiences through a seed-to-table nutrition program, thoughtfully designed facilities, especially-trained-for-this-work educators, and a school culture influenced by the Reggio Emilia approach integrated with Spanish exposure. Your wellness and the wellness of your child shouldn’t be a question of either/or. SolBe is an early learning center committed to yes/and. Our dynamic program continually adapts and improves as we nurture healthy, engaged lives for children and adults. SolBe offers the following schedule options: Full-time, 5 days/week, Extended day 8:00 AM - 5:30 PM Full-time, 5 days/week, 8:00 AM - 3:00 PM Part-time, 4 days/week, 8:00 AM - 3:00 PM Part-time, 3 days/week, 8:00 AM - 3:00 PM.

40 Bourneside St Dorchester Center, MA

With a Master Degree in Early Education and care, My goal is to provide children from three months to age 6 with experiences and activities of learning that will enrich them in all levels of development. We use research based curricula for our child centered activities and believe that children learn best through culturally rich environments, meaningful play and consistent scheduling. Though we are a family based child care we believe in going into the community for a significant part of our learning. This gives our students an opportunity to see the world they are learning about from a real life point of view. Field trips to local libraries and other learning environments/events are scheduled on a regular basis. We also provide at no additional cost, three full meals and two snacks for full time students and are closely monitored by a nutrition education program which insures we offer what is known to be best for the children at the appropriate age. We also offer assistance with toilet training and self regulation skills for behavior challenged children. We are a full year program accepting private pay and voucher assisted clients.
