A holistic approach to early learning and development.

At NextGen, every child’s learning journey deserves thoughtful and creative cultivation. We’re creating a warm, engaging environment where children learn through exploration, creativity, and play, and where each child’s developmental milestones are supported alongside their confidence, curiosity, and lifelong love of learning.

We are currently accepting applications for infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children at our new center at 71 Walnut Road, Swampscott.

A warm and secure space where children feel comfortable and happy.

Activities designed to inspire curiosity, creativity, and confidence.

Our Learning Approach

Our evidence-based curriculum is complemented by a team of dedicated educators who create an environment that nurtures and inspires.

NextGen educators believe that alongside traditional literacy and numeracy skills, it is essential to support the development of cognitive skills and emotional intelligence. This comprehensive approach ensures children become successful learners and valued members of the community.

The Environment

Everything You Need To Know About Next Gen Early

Our anticipated opening is Summer 2026 at 71 Walnut Road, Swampscott. We're currently completing our licensing process with the Massachusetts Department of Early Education and Care (EEC). Once licensing is finalized, we'll begin contacting families on the waitlist in the order their inquiries were received.

NextGen welcomes infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children. When you join the waitlist, we ask for your child's date of birth and desired start date so we can match you to availability in the right age group as enrollment opens.

No. Submitting a waitlist form places your family on our priority list, but it does not guarantee enrollment. Classroom capacity and group sizes are limited, and spots are offered in the order inquiries were received. Families are encouraged to join the waitlist early for priority consideration.

All meals are prepared daily in our kitchen by NextGen's chef, with bi-weekly seasonal menus developed alongside pediatric nutritionists. We focus on wholesome, real food and on giving children the time to eat slowly and notice what's in front of them.

Enriching each child’s life.
