Philosophy

International Playgroup provides a warm, loving, homelike environment in which children gain a sense of security and develop self-esteem. On a daily basis, we practice major developmental areas, such as emotional and social skills. At International Playgroup, we celebrate the uniqueness of each child and appreciate the fact that children develop at their own pace.

Mission

Our mission is to raise happy, self-assured, independent, compassionate and nurturing children.

History

International Playgroup has been a licensed small day care center for children ages 18 months to 5 years since 1998. It's curriculum is play and Montessori based. We believe that doing what they love best, e.g. play, children learn the most. Play stimulates the imagination, teaches social skills, helps with verbal communication, is open ended and it is fun. We provide the children with materials that are fun yet challenging depending on the age of the child. Zoreh Majd, the director/teacher, has many years of experience in child development. She holds a BA for Wellesley College in French language and literature and speaks several other foreign languages. Zoreh is also a trained Montessori teacher.
