NAEYC-accredited early childhood center in Leominster serving infants through pre-K with specialized support for learning differences
Northwest Child Development Center is a NAEYC-accredited early childhood program in Leominster, MA serving infants through pre-kindergarten. The center specializes in supporting children with mild learning differences and speech needs, with the flexibility to individualize curriculum for each child's developmental profile. Staff use evidence-based assessment tools including Teaching Strategies GOLD and the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ-3) to monitor progress and tailor instruction four times per year.
The program maintains small class sizes (average 20 children) with 10 classroom teachers on staff, creating an environment conducive to individualized attention. Children with learning differences and speech support needs benefit from structured, play-based learning that integrates skill-building with developmental milestones. The center's commitment to personalized assessment means your child's progress is tracked regularly and curriculum adjustments are made to meet their specific needs.
Tuition is $200 per week for preschool and $275 per week for infant/toddler care. The center operates year-round with summer programs available and uses rolling admissions.
