In a place where lobsters and baseball are revered, where autumn leaves paint the landscape in magnificent hues, and where a certain tea party played a critical role in shaping history - there you'll find the magical state of Massachusetts. Nestled in the heart of New England, this state is not only home to some of the finest clam chowder and the world-renowned Boston Marathon, it's also a bustling hub of STEM/STEAM activity. Meet our friend, Gizmo the Geeky Grasshopper. Gizmo is no ordinary grasshopper, oh no! He sports a pair of funky glasses, carries a tiny beaker, and is often seen zooming across the state on his mini rocket-powered skateboard, visiting the numerous libraries, museums, and schools. Gizmo is all about STEM/STEAM. Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics are his partners in crime, and together they make learning a grand adventure for all the kids in Massachusetts. Gizmo and the kids are always up to something fun and educational. Whether they're coding a new video game, building miniature robots, or painting mathematical masterpieces, they are continually exploring ways to merge creativity, innovation, and problem-solving. Much like the state they live in, these kids are a blend of history and modernity, tradition and innovation. Together, they laugh, learn, and make the occasional explosion (all in the name of science, of course). And at the end of the day, they've made Massachusetts not just the birthplace of American liberty, but also a rising star in the universe of STEM/STEAM. So, if you ever find yourself in the midst of this buzzing hive of creativity, don't be surprised if you encounter a bunch of inspired kids, led by a geeky grasshopper, excitedly discussing their next big project!

Kim and Dolores had a dream to create a loving and nurturing environment for Alex, Kim’s daughter. In 1994, this dream became a reality when Wee Care opened its doors on Main Street in Southborough. Kim and Dolores wanted to ensure that Wee Care provided the best care and education possible for all families. Due to the success of the first center, Wee Care opened a second location on Breakneck Hill in Southborough two years later. Families from all over the area took advantage of the quality care and education provided by Wee Care. Now, in 2020, Kim and Dolores are thrilled to be able to come full circle and bring both Wee Care locations together under one roof! With Main Street’s expansion, they can provide even more families with the quality care and education they have come to expect from Wee Care.
