The Preschool & Pre-K Classrooms
In our preschool and pre-K classrooms, children thrive as they channel their curiosity and energy into playful exploration, expressing their individuality and celebrating the unique qualities of their friends.
Ages 2.9 years to 5 years
The preschool and pre-K years are a time of tremendous growth as children expand their processing, social, and foundational learning skills. During this developmental stage, children are eager to learn, explore, and express themselves. Our preschool and pre-K classrooms are designed to support this critical period by fostering independence, creativity and a love of learning. We provide a rich, engaging environment that encourages hands-on learning, social interaction, and skill-building through play across key areas of your child’s development.
Nurturing curious minds and caring hearts
Preschoolers and pre-K children are naturally curious and eager to connect with others. Our program nurtures this curiosity and fosters strong relationships by providing experiences that encourage critical thinking, problem-solving, and meaningful play. As children explore early literacy, math, and foundational academic skills, they also learn empathy, cooperation, and conflict resolution through guided social interactions and group play. Our caring teachers model positive behavior, support emotional growth, and help children build the self-confidence they need to thrive—both in learning and in life.
Growing strong bodies, bright minds, and creative spirits
As children grow, they develop the physical, cognitive, and creative skills that form the foundation for lifelong learning. In our schools, active play on state-of-the-art playgrounds helps build strength, balance, and coordination, while fine motor skills are strengthened through hands-on activities like drawing, cutting, and writing. Language and literacy development is woven into every part of the day through storytelling, singing, and engaging reading instruction that builds vocabulary and fosters a love of books. At the same time, our thoughtfully designed environments invite children to explore the world through art, music, and imaginative play—sparking creativity, building confidence, and encouraging new ways of thinking and understanding.
Hear from our families
I have worked with Little sprouts for 13 years and counting- and now I have my infant enrolled at the center. I love my years of teaching, and I’m so thankful for an amazing environment for my son to learn and grow. Walking into the school there is so much evidence of learning, and we are filled with an amazing group of staff that has much experience with children. I’m happy to work here with people who share a love for kids just like I do!
My daughters have been with little Sprouts since they were babies. We know all the teachers, from infant class to preK, to name a few, Ms Izzy, Ms Christina, Ms Sheila, Ms Vanessa, Ms Michelle, Ms Kindreth...who are all so caring and loving. The school is like a big family. My kids are happy to go there everyday, learn new things and make friends.
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 experience with Little Sprouts Hingham has been nothing short of amazing. As first time parents we were so nervous about leaving our baby girl but from the start we’ve felt so comfortable knowing that she’s in such great hands. We are so thankful for our baby girl’s amazing teachers, Miss Becky and Miss Julianne - thank you for taking such great care of Scarlett! We love seeing pictures of her day and how happy she looks.
I love this daycare my Granddaughter is learning so much she keeps to herself most of the time but I like how some of the teachers are very nice and caring for the kids
