OUR ENROLLMENT AND CONTACT INFORMATION IN LEXINGTON, MASSACHUSETTS

Year-Round Care

The Children’s Center offers both partial-day and full-day enrollment options for toddlers and preschoolers, from 15 months to 5 years.  Enrollment is for the full-year, 12-month program.  The majority of openings occur in September because that is when children move “up” to new classrooms, but children can be enrolled whenever space becomes available. 


Applications for September open the year prior in December. We process applications on a rolling basis while spaces are available.


When we receive your application and the required non-refundable application fee of $75.00, if there is an opening, a refundable $500 security deposit and a non-refundable payment equivalent to one month’s tuition (which is applied to the first month’s tuition) are required to reserve the space. 


 If we do not have a space, your child’s name can be put on our waiting list by submitting a completed application.


We encourage families to visit the Center prior to submitting an application.  Contact us at ccl@cclex.org or give us a call at (781) 861-9370 today to schedule a tour!

EXCEPTIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Our daughter spent four wonderful years at Children's Center of Lexington – she absolutely thrived there in part because of her extraordinary Children's Center of Lexington teachers/caregivers. We feel that we made absolutely the best preschool choice in Lexington and the best choice for our daughter. From wonderful learning opportunities, to teachers that were intimately invested in our daughter’s development, to holiday celebrations, and (once she was slightly older) field trips and walks through the center. Children's Center of Lexington went above and beyond to provide an experience that our daughter still talks about today (she is now a first grader and regularly asks to go back to Children's Center of Lexington to visit her teachers). Children's Center of Lexington was also an incredible way for us to transition to the Lexington community. Our closest family friends continue to be those that we met through Children's Center of Lexington. We also believe that Children's Center of Lexington prepared out daughter to easily and successfully transition into Kindergarten.
 
We feel eternally grateful to Children's Center of Lexington for all that it did for our daughter and our family. We would recommend it to anyone.
