Who we are
Although it may seem like grade school is years down the road, the foundation for your child’s future is established in their earliest years. The Melrose School is a boutique preschool in Newton, Massachusetts that nurtures children from 2.5 years to 5 years old. We offer a uniquely individualized experience in a highly responsive, mixed-age setting.


How we do it
The Melrose School supports learning in a language-rich environment. Each child’s social, emotional, physical, intellectual, and linguistic development is supported with a tailored experience based on his or her own strengths, needs, and interests. By keeping our ratios low and pairing your child with the same teachers for three years, The Melrose School is able to meet each child at the intersection of their interests and developmental needs. Every moment is an opportunity for your child to learn, and we do not take that lightly.
