The Learning Garden

This is an excellent pre-​school whose reputation is stellar. I had heard of this school from the home daycare he attended when he was three months old. I knew I was going to send him to The Learning Garden (even though at the time they did not yet offer full-​time care).
If there was a better word for «supportive» I’d use it to describe the teachers, especially Mrs. Beth Downer. They make it easy to share personal stories about your kids. They have excellent listening skills meaning they don’t interrupt and you can see they are really absorbing what you are sharing (regardless of how many loud kids there are in the background). Their eagerness to be on the same page as you makes you feel like you are part of a united team there to work together and to propel your child forward with love and care.
Yes, this is only pre-​school we’re talking about but this school is much more than «just» a pre-​school. The Learning Garden cares about the education they are providing. They understand the needs and wants of young children. They are not too pushy except when it was in the best interest for your child. In our experience we are so thankful that they cared so much about our kid’s well-​beings and their educational needs.
Two of our children have experienced both their full day care (they were one of the first enrolled) as well as the part-​time pre-​school program. The school’s curriculum, structure, and supportive environment are worth the investment. I can’t wait to send our next child to The Learning Garden.

With a full curriculum for kids and all the individual attention and learning programs, I highly reccomend this school. They just moved into a larger place on 5 Andover Road Billerica, MA. We enjoyed the little extras from this school with all the flexible hours and customer service, it was just another reason to send our child back for a second year.
