OUR PROGRAMS

As Massachusetts' only Portuguese-English bilingual learning center with Montessori-inspired educational principles, we offer developmentally appropriate programs for children ages 3 months to 8 years.

Our Child-Centered Approach

Our bilingual immersion approach provides a seamless experience in both English and Portuguese, creating natural language acquisition. We follow Montessori-inspired principles that respect each child's development pace while encouraging independence, curiosity, and a love for learning in children from infancy through early elementary years.

Infant Program

Ages 3 months - 2.9 years

Our nurturing infant program provides a warm, safe environment where babies develop at their own pace. We focus on responsive caregiving that builds trust and security while promoting language, motor, and social development through gentle guidance and bilingual interaction.

• Low teacher-to-child ratios for individualized care
• Sensory-rich environments that stimulate development
• Daily communication with families about milestones and care

• Daily opportunities for creative expression through art, music, and movement
• Social-emotional development through collaborative projects and conflict resolution

School-Age Program
