From Day one it’s been a great experience. First time mom with a shy daughter I was filled with anxiety . My baby has shined and excelled and she has broken out of her shyness bombing with personality, learning the things needed. Worried for the school year but I know she walking outta little sprouts with the tools she need to excel in kindergarten ❤️

Little Sprouts in Boston South End has been a bless for our family. We have just moved from France and I was anxious about how my daughter will adapt to her new school without speaking English. I was totally amazed, even if she doesn't understand, since the first day at school she was happy at the end of the day when I picked her up. Every single teacher has been wonderful, as well as all the management team introducing to my kid some teachers that speaks French and Spanish to try to understand…
