We have been in business since 1982 and as many of you know, we own and operate two pre-schools in Medfield, MA, one located in the Church of the Advent on Pleasant Street, and the other located in the First Baptist Church on South Street.
Medfield Childrens Center, Inc. is a privately owned, non-denominational preschool. One school is located in the First Baptist Church on the corner of South and Main Street and our other school is located in the Church of the Advent on Pleasant Street. The schools are convenient to many surrounding communities and services families from Medfield as well as approximately seven other towns. Our Centers meet the safety standards of the Fire and Building Inspectors of the Town of Medfield.

The purpose of Medfield Childrens Center is to provide a safe, creative, stimulating learning environment for children age 15 months to 5 plus years. The program allows children to develop social and listening skills and to become confident in a group setting while engaged in age-appropriate activities. MCC recognizes that each child is an individual and develops at his/her own pace.
As educators of young children, we value childhood. Too much exposure to formal academics too early in a childs development can cause a child to be resistant to the excitement of learning. Our purpose is to allow the children to explore, to wonder, to experiment with language and materials, to play and to develop a love for learning. Teachers endorse and value the following skills as appropriate for young children.
