    I highly recommend The Concord Carousel Preschool. Our son graduated this past spring after three…read moreyears of attending. Our second child will be starting this autumn. There are four classrooms, two teachers per classroom - it makes for a nice, friendly community. The teachers are wonderful and provide a warm and nurturing environment that builds confidence and encourages exploration, creativity, and learning. Our son thrived here. I was concerned that three years of preschool was going to grow stale but that was absolutely not the case. The little 2.9 yr old child who started two days a week was very different from the 5 1/2 yr old, going four days a week, that graduated but I feel each classroom experience met this growth and change very nicely. The school is in the same building as The Council on Aging and the school and the council make the most of this unique set-up with the preschoolers performing for the Council on Aging community at various times throughout the year, and the members of Council on Aging helping the children pick out Mother's Day gifts from their gift shop. The children work hard to prepare and are so proud after their performance. The location also enables the children to take a weekly walk and trip to the library and other walks around town. With one stay-at-home parent, we only needed a true preschool experience, not daycare, but the preschool offers Stay and Play on Mondays and Wednesdays that extends the day to 2:30pm. I found this very useful if I needed extra time in the day. We also took advantage of Stay and Swim where the kids are bused to Beede for a swim lesson on Wednesdays. The children are learning art, science, and math every day through their activities and play. The teacher shared all that the children were learning in her weekly newsletter. Stand-outs from this last year alone - Learning about Concord's amazing authors and then taking a hike in the same woods they hiked; learning about the world's most talented artists, making art in the style of these artists, then capping it off with a field trip to the MFA; reinforcing the value of giving back and helping others from a month long dedicated service unit where the children do things like collect old towels for animal shelters, candy for soldiers, and actually go shopping to put together a holiday meal for a family in need. Each year they put out a yearbook for the school. I love that he will always have these books to remind him of his time in preschool. The graduation ceremony was a beautiful (tearful for mom) send-off to kindergarten and, after speaking with my son on his first few days in kindergarten, it is clear that Carousel Preschool helped prepare him for an easy transition to kindergarten. As you can tell from this review, we are big fans of this preschool. :^)

    One of our sons went and the other is still going to Concord Carousel Preschool, which is run by…read morethe Concord Recreational Department and is in the Harvey Wheeler building. They share the playground with the Concord Children's Center. They offer an optional stay and play program, swim lessons at the Beede Center, and a summer program. The kids go on many fields trips (local businesses, Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, local farms, etc.) and walk to the library across the street on a weekly basis. Unsurprisingly, they have a close relationship with the Concord public school system, which allows them to really ease the transition to kindergarten (they even organize field trips to kindergarten) and provide valuable information about your kid's needs and strengths to their new school. We also liked that all teachers are experienced and mature individuals. You will not be leaving your kid with a 19-year-old. It's a well run, creative, and welcoming program.

    Oak Meadow has been an absolutely amazing educational experience for my family for the past two…read moreyears. My children are young (2 and 4), so it's my first school encounter as a parent, and I know the bar has been set incredibly high. The children are nurtured and deeply cared for by amazing, highly qualified and empathetic teachers who lead by example. They are genuinely excited to go to school each day, and, through the Montessori teaching method, absorb imperative life, critical thinking, analytical, and social skills in the classroom that they then take home with them. Oak Meadow students (my own and those that I've observed of all ages) are independent thinkers who are considerate, respectful, and supportive of one another. It's so refreshing to witness! Oak Meadow is a very special learning environment - we looked at many preschools in the area, and are consistently impressed with Oak Meadow's curriculum, teachers, and community.

    We have had our son graduate from this school a couple of years ago. He joined the school as a 1st…read moreyear children's house student and graduated 8th grade 11 years later! The school proved to be a wonderful choice for my son's education . It has helped him develop a sound foundation in all aspects of academic learning while providing him the right kind of social and emotional support necessary for well rounded development. He has gone onto thrive in a highly competitive high school program with no issues. The personal attention and care that he received from his teachers all through his years at the school has a lot to do with this success. We have been so happy with his progress that we had no hesitation to start his younger brother in the same program a few years ago and we have been very happy with how well he is thriving at the school. If you are looking for excellent academics this school is a good choice. If you are looking for more than just academic excellence, I think there is nothing better than this school and its teachers!!

They are a co-op, so don't be fooled, you have to contribute time, but what parent wouldn't want to be involved in their children's daily lives? LNS is located at the DeCordova Museum, which helps them incorporate nature and art into the curriculum. Because there is a parent teacher in the classroom every day, you can be confident that your children are in great hands. These teachers are so kind and you can trust that they treat your child as if he/she were their own. To help acclimate your child into the school and classroom they: 1) start with a home visit to every child's home to get to know them in a setting where they feel comfortable. 2) have "lemonade parties" where the kids can go have a snack and lemonade at school for an hour and hang out in the classroom/on campus and with the teachers with their parents around. 3) they start the year off with just half of the class for the first two days so it isn't overwhelming for the kids and they can have more individual time with the teachers. Throughout the year, they conduct parent teacher curriculum nights and events. They have their whole year scheduled and organized. The teachers have an online blog where you can read what they are doing and they post photos for you to be a part of the experience. This School is very advanced for a "day care". They follow some of the practices of some of the private schools in the area. I have been to quite a few day cares and I have 3 children, so I am really impressed by this nursery school. Amazing place! Please feel free to contact me with any questions!

The classrooms are full of light and fun - inspiring a love of art and nature, and giving children the tools they need to discover their world and develop meaningful friendships. It's a co-op, so a parent is in the classroom each day. There are nature walks, outdoor play, visits to the DeCordova Museum, baking, music, and so much more. I wish I could spend every morning there!
