Discovery Schoolhouse provides a warm, nurturing, supportive, educational, and enjoyable experience for children from 15 months through kindergarten, all year round, all day long. Our toddler and preschool programs run 7:00 in the morning until 6:00 in the evening the entire calendar year, with a variety of scheduling options available. They do not follow a school year calendar, and can children enroll at any time, all year round. Our developmental kindergarten program runs 8:00-5:00 on a school-year calendar. with 7AM drop-off and 6PM pickup options available, and enrolls children five years old in the fall or early winter, without an strict age cutoff. We always have toddler and preschool children enrolled for a variety of the available schedules, with some children attending “full time,” five days a week, 7:00 to 6:00, and other children attending only 2 or 3 days 8:00 – 3:00. Many parents send their children to Discovery Schoolhouse so that their children will have a positive social experience with other children, learn how to be friends, and learn about the world. We want Discovery Schoolhouse to be just right for every child who enrolls! We are real, old fashioned preschool!…The program uses an interactive, child-centered, developmentally appropriate approach which assumes that children learn through active participation and discovery (which is just our way of saying that we are a very “play-based” program). The curriculum emphasizes child-initiated activities, fostering independence, social skills, respecting cultural diversity, creativity, and individuality.

My program combines the structure and schedule of a typical preschool classroom with the comfort of a home environment. This helps children prepare for a transition into a kindergarten classroom. There is sensory play such as play dough or finger painting, time for pre-academics with letter and math games, read alouds, storytelling/story acting and other pre-writing activities. We spend a lot of time outdoors at two nearby parks to encourage free play and exploration and gross motor movement. We will have daily whole group meetings and activities as well as plenty of time for independent and group play. I encourage kids to step outside their comfort zone and try new things, even if it's hard. Maintaining routines and order is greatly beneficial and something I take seriously. Having clear and consistent boundaries and expectations makes everyone feel safe and respected. But while I firmly believe in structures and routines, there will be plenty of time for spontaneity and lots of fun! What is NeighborSchools? NeighborSchools helps experienced caregivers launch and operate licensed home daycares in Massachusetts. With better ratios and experienced caretakers, home daycare allows for more individualized attention for infants and toddlers. As a parent, you get a trusted partner for the long-term care of your child, right in your neighborhood, at a price you can afford.
