Our education pillars

Clear communication is at the heart of our health and safety commitment. From daily updates to rigorous protocols, we take every precaution to keep children safe, supported, and families informed.

Luminate

We create wonder by encouraging curiosity. We let questions lead learning and prioritize sensory play, process art, outdoor learning, and open-ended discovery.

Environment

Above all, we create environments that are safe and secure. From enforcing building security, to hiring trustworthy teachers, to prioritizing wellness, our number one priority is the health and safety of each and every little one in our care. Our environments are not only safe, but carefully set up with the intention of fostering exploration, curiosity, and learning.

Advocate

We build strong relationships and advocate for every child's needs. We honor each child's individuality, developmental journey, and natural pace for learning.

Respect

Our inclusive and diverse curriculum promotes equity by recognizing and valuing the unique backgrounds, cultures, abilities, and experiences of all children. We practice Anti-Bias Early Education, which means little ones are introduced to a wide range of cultural perspectives, fostering respect, empathy, and a sense of belonging.

Nurture

Through play, we help children develop critical cognitive, social and emotional skills, such as problem-solving, self-regulation, and communication. Our teachers nurture both emotional and physical safety, empowering children to explore and grow, while fostering their social and emotional intelligence and resilience.

What our families are saying

We have two children enrolled at Little Sprouts in Dedham and have experience from the infant room all the way through pre-school. All of the teachers are kind, enthusiastic and caring, and made the transition into school a breeze for both kids. Karen & Alyssa are super organized & communicative. We enjoy getting pictures of the kids throughout the day - often it is hard to get them to leave at the end of the day!

Our son is always happy to go to school at Little Sprouts and loves to give all the teachers hugs. I’m so happy his first teachers have been so loving. Everyone has been wonderful about accommodating his schedule.

The best decision I made was to have my son in little sprouts. The teachers are very lovely and caring. My son is learning a lot, I’m very happy that my son is part of little sprouts.

We love Little Sprouts! Our son has been there since 3+ months and has grown there emotionally and intellectually. The teachers are warm and wonderful and we treasure the community we've built there. Our son will age out of the school next year and we're already sad about it. I don't think anything will compare!
Rebecca Brophy
We love Little Sprouts Stratham! Returning to work from maternity leave was tough, once I met all of the teacher and saw the classrooms it made me so much more comfortable. I can see the genuine care each teacher has for their students. The school has great communication and incredible staff. Ms. Taryn, Ms. Ksenia, Ms. Hilary and Ms. Leda have been amazing, we love them! I highly recommend this school!
