West Newbury Preschools

Early Childhood School of Georgetown is an educational program for children, 2 months- 6 years of age, housed in a sun-drenched Victorian Styled building. We are located in Georgetown, MA. We inspire the joy & wonder of learning. A fun and active environment that provides appropriate learning programs that stimulate the children's natural curiosity. The school promotes active learning through play-based and child-initiated activities. It has a capacity of 64 children, and it operates from Mondays through Fridays, 7:00 AM to 5:30 PM.

Our Center opened in June 2001, and has provided a safe, clean, and nurturing learning environment for children in their most inquisitive years of development. We take pride in the relationships we form with the children and families.This truly is a family environment with everyone invested in our children's future. We have an open door policy and encourage open communication daily through informal meetings, personal notes to families, and parents teacher conferences throughout the year. Our group of educators will expose the children to wide range of activities that will help promote their physical, cognitive, emotional, and social growth.

I am a mother of three wonderful children and just recently became a grandmother. I know how hard it can be to find child care that feels right, and I want to be that person parents can trust, especially if the children have special needs. When you come into my home, you are a part of my family.

Through my many years of managing and leading teams in a customer service environment, I have been able to capitalize on how to change my techniques of teaching to each individual's specific needs. Everyone learns at different speeds and in different ways. My previous experience helps me teach your child at his or her speed, and I just love learning how each child thinks and learning what's on their minds. One of my favorite games is to begin a story and then ask the kids to continue it. As adults, we're so preoccupied with life obligations, schedules, grocery lists. But kids are fascinated by all these amazing little things. It really brings you back down to earth, and I feel so lucky that I get to take care of little ones, prepare them for school, and be a part of their lives.

Daily activities at Sandy's Tiny Tykes Daycare focus on encouraging the imagination. I have a reading area, art and coloring space, and lots of opportunities to play with different sensory items. My program space has a really comfy rug, so we can have fun playing games on the floor. I think it's important for kids to have activities that trigger their imagination.

I'm so excited to have my own program and the ability to cater to the unique needs of each child. Every child is different, and I'm a firm believer in letting the kids be themselves. I've created general schedules for the day, but everything will be tweaked once I've met the kids, and I'm able to see what they respond to. I love introducing different activities to explore their little minds. You can see them really thinking and processing, and it's so rewarding when something clicks.

The Newburyport KinderCare has been with the community since 1980. This center was built to provide the community with quality care in an open atmosphere. The Newburyport program utilizes an open floor plan to socialize and interact with the teaching staff. Classrooms are not segregated allowing for more conversation among the parents and teachers. We have three large outdoor play areas in which children can explore and grow beyond the classroom. Our program offers flexible schedules and flexible hours as well as providing children with breakfast, lunch and an afternoon snack. Here at KinderCare we take great pride in the care and well being of our children. Whether your child has first words or first grade on the horizon, we’re excited to show you how everything in our center is designed for learning!

Little Sprouts Amesbury is nestled in the heart of charming downtown Amesbury and offers an intimate setting for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and pre-kindergarten chilldren. This location is reminiscent of a little neighborhood school house, complete with a private and age-appropriate playground.

Walking into the school, you are welcomed into an open and warm lobby with bamboo floors throughout. The natural wood of the floors and the furniture in the classrooms was intentionally selected to create a soothing and relaxing atmosphere for your child to learn, grow, and build lifelong friendships with their peers and teachers.

This location is convenient to routes 495 and 95 and is just a stone's throw from downtown Amesbury. Come visit us to learn more about this local neighborhood gem!
