Play-based preschool and daycare in Lexington for children 15 months to 5 years. Since 1984, we've helped kids become good friends, creative risk-takers, and confident learners.
We’ve taught the same way since 1984: emergent, interest-led, child-driven. When kids lead their own learning through play, they build problem-solving, creativity, and independence that packaged curricula rarely reach.
Sandy has been here since we opened in 1984. Casey since 1993. Talia since 1999. Teachers stay, which means your child builds real relationships with adults who know them by name, mood, and current obsession.
Hobbit house. Apple trees. Trike path. Tunnels, movable logs, blueberry bushes. The woods-in-your-backyard play most Lexington kids don’t get anywhere else.
"They loved my kids as if they were theirs, and supported and celebrated their very different personalities."— Rachel, LPC parent for 7 years
Toddler and preschool classrooms, year-round, with two-, three-, or five-day schedules to fit your week.
Classes run at 2:8 — two teachers for every eight children. That means more lap time, more one-on-one attention, and fewer handoffs when a child needs a grown-up they already know. Toddlers explore through sensory play, music, art, and outdoor discovery.
Classes run at 2:10 — two teachers for every ten children. Fewer transitions, more one-on-one time with teachers who know your child’s name, quirks, and current obsession. Our emergent curriculum follows that knowledge: through projects, art, storytelling, and outdoor exploration, preschoolers build the habits they’ll carry into kindergarten.
Sandy has been here since 1984. Casey since 1993. Talia since 1999. Low turnover isn't an accident.
Tours run Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday mornings. See the classrooms, meet the teachers, walk the playground — then decide.
