Gardengate Academy, located in Natick, Massachusetts is the perfect place for your child's early learning experience. Our academy follows the Reggio Emilia learning style, which emphasizes a play-based, exploration-oriented learning environment. Our curriculum is based on the children's own interests and encourages a love of learning that will last them a lifetime.
At Gardengate Academy, our teachers carefully observe and reflect on the children's activities, and use this information to create and modify the curriculum. Our Reggio classrooms are filled with groups of children studying monuments, birds, nature, construction sites or different artists, based on what sparks their curiosity. With this approach, your child will not only exceed educational standards, but also develop a genuine appreciation for learning.
Our Teachers provide a warm nurturing environment for each baby in our class. The safety of your baby is our main priority so our infant program is designed to offer a secure place with knowledgeable teachers who honor your family’s routine.
