Children are divided into groups (or rooms) based on age.
| Room | Age range |
|---|---|
| Purple Door | 3 – 9 months |
| Blue Door | 10 – 16 months |
| Green Door | 17 – 23 months |
| Yellow Door | 2 – 2.8 years |
| Orange Door | 2.9 – 3.5 years |
| Red Door | 3.6 years and up |
These are approximations, which may vary slightly from year to year.
Our ratios of teachers to children meet or exceed the guidelines set by the Department of Early Education and Care, DEEC, the state regulatory agency for childcare centers in Massachusetts.
Twice a year, parents meet with their child’s teachers for a formal conference during which teachers share their observations and assessment of the child’s growth and parents share about their experience with their child at home. Special conferences can be arranged as needed throughout the year.
