Our School
Each child that is enrolled in my program is treated with lots of love and respect. As a mother, I always want what is best for my child and I treat my childcare children the same. The biggest part of a social and emotional development is forming strong relationships with others. At Cove Childcare/Preschool, your child will be making some of their very first friends and discovering many new and exciting things.

A policeman visited with the students to talk about what an emergency is and what to do during one, like call 911.
Our students enjoyed a special visit from the Beverly Public Library's Book Mobile!
We were so lucky to have found Miss A. She creates a safe, clean, positive, and loving environment for our children.

Our Infant Program
The infant program is designed to promote development through play in a happy, safe, loving and nurturing environment. I am trained to teach the development of new skills including language and cognitive skills. I use a wide variety of manipulatives to encourage your child to explore, learn and grow.
Year one of your baby’s life is all about tender loving care and my curriculum is geared around stories, songs and sensory experiences. At around the time of your child’s first birthday, I begin to encourage him/her toward more of a toddler’s routine and learning experiences.
Although you are probably not thinking about Kindergarten readiness at this point, please know that as your child grows older that I am prepared to help them transition into a preschool curriculum at age three (3) and help them to be fully prepared for Kindergarten. We will meet to discuss goals as your child nears preschool age.
