Mission
Our mission is to provide high-quality early education and care through a developmentally appropriate model of engaged learning. We encourage curiosity, personal interactions, and active participation in a close-knit and inclusive social environment of peers and adults. Using the entire Regis campus, our children explore, create, and discover with Regis faculty and students.
As a model teaching center, Regis College students are provided with rich opportunities to conduct on-site field observations and internships. The children in our program are given the opportunity to interact with a multitude of diverse people in a naturally intergenerational campus setting.
Classrooms
Our program consists of eight classrooms:
- Two Toddler Classrooms
- Two Transitional Preschool Rooms
- Two Preschool Classrooms
- Two Pre-Kindergarten Rooms

The Nature Forward, Pride classroom, explore the environment every day, rain or shine. The Regis College campus is a beautiful place that allows for endless exploration. Every year, a class finds their most beloved spot and cannot wait to return day after day. The Pride venture, explore, and grow.
