Preschool

We offer 5 day, 3 day, and 2 day programs

Our preschool classes are designed to prepare children for school academically as well as socially and emotionally. At Little Star Child Care Center Inc, the class size is kept small to provide individualized attention as well as small group work to teach children how to handle both types of environment.

The ultimate goal of our child care center is to help build confidence and academic preparation. We are proud to serve our friends and neighbors in Peabody, MA and the surrounding area in school, before school, and after school care services.
