For more than 30 years, A Children’s Carousel in Weston has been a beloved cornerstone of early childhood education. Known for its nurturing atmosphere, experienced staff, and imaginative learning spaces, the school has earned the trust of generations of families. Preschool Director Rebeca Moss shares what makes this long-standing preschool such a special place for children and their families.
A Legacy of Learning and Community
Founded with a vision to create a safe and stimulating preschool environment, A Children’s Carousel has grown into a vibrant learning community that emphasizes not only academics but also the social and emotional development of every child. The school’s mission, to foster intellectual, emotional, and social growth, is reflected daily through personalized attention, engaging hands-on activities, and strong partnerships with families.
From infants through VPK, the school offers both full-day and part-day programs, with enriching experiences designed to support each child’s development. Parents consistently praise the welcoming, inclusive atmosphere and the continuity of care—many return with younger siblings or even second-generation students.
HighScope Curriculum and Creative Exploration
A Children’s Carousel implements the HighScope curriculum, a research-based approach that emphasizes active, intentional learning. Through the Plan-Do-Review process, children are empowered to make choices, solve problems, and reflect on their activities, building confidence, independence, and critical thinking skills.
What truly sets this preschool apart is Carousel City, a custom-designed indoor play town that offers dramatic play areas, a block zone, and themed centers. This unique space encourages collaboration, creativity, and exploration in a safe and imaginative environment that children adore.
Excellence Through Enrichment and Accreditation
In addition to its strong academic foundation, the school offers enrichment programs led by specialized instructors in music, art, and physical education. Its APPLE accreditation reflects a commitment to the highest standards in early childhood education. With dedicated teachers and a philosophy rooted in developmental research, A Children’s Carousel supports each child’s journey toward lifelong learning and success.
