Western Ave
Children's Center


Getting Started
We are excited to be establishing a new program as part of the building of a new Innovation Hub in Allston. We are excited to be part of the positive growth of the area and become part of a cornerstone of this new community. We will not expect to start with 8 new classrooms and 40 new staff on the first day, but have a plan to match enrollment and staffing as we build deliberately towards sustainable excellence.
​
As we build, we will hold the following values at the core of our work and growth:
-
Intentionally developing individual and collective relationships among children, staff, and families within the classrooms, the center, and the university.
-
Holding the Reggio Emilia approach as an inspiration for curriculum development.
-
Being inclusive of all individuals and families.
-
Respectful interactions among all members of the community, including professional interactions and regular invitation to varying perspectives and experiences.
-
Nurturing, safe and welcoming classrooms with support and affection for children, families and staff.
