in Holliston has earned accreditation from the National Association for the Education of Young Children, the nation’s leading organization for early childhood professionals.

Blessed Beginnings is a non-profit program that has been in operation since 2003. Developmentally-appropriate curriculum is used at the preschool to help children learn and grow at their own pace. To earn NAEYC accreditation, Blessed Beginnings conducted a self-assessment to determine how well it met the national standards, then completed a self-study to organize all evidence of compliance in program and classroom portfolios.

Parent/teacher communication, curriculum, staff qualifications, assessment, physical space, health and safety, teacher/child interaction and community relations are all important components of the criteria. Once all standards were met, the program was observed by an independent, professional assessor and then reviewed by a national panel. Programs are accredited by NAEYC for a five-year period.
