About Square One in Springfield, MA
Harriett Merriam, daughter of Charles Merriam, the man behind Merriam-Webster Dictionaries, founded Springfield Day Nursery in 1883. This was in response to a desperate need for child care among Springfield’s hardworking families. Now known as Square One, the organization provides tailored education and support services for every child and family. Our mission is to foster a lifelong love of learning, giving children the skills they need to make smart decisions and to grow strong in all aspects of life.

Early Education and Summer Programs
A Square One full day of preschool means 7:30 a.m. -5:30 p.m. – all for one, affordable fee. We serve breakfast, lunch and snacks every day. Facilitated, playful learning is as important to intellectual and personal growth as academic support and success, which is why Square One employs a “play-based” curriculum.
