About The Little Schoolhouse on Maine

The Little Schoolhouse on Maine believes that children learn best through play and hands-on experiences, forming the foundation of our early education. Through play, children learn social skills, become active, creative explorers in their environment, and build self-confidence and self-esteem. This approach is central to our preschool programs. At The Little Schoolhouse on Maine, we support children’s learning and growth through daily interactions with peers, caregivers, and age-appropriate materials, ensuring a trusted childcare environment. We believe that the learning environment is the ‘third teacher’ alongside family and staff, enhancing classroom experiences.

We believe that teachers guide your child’s development and nurture each child’s growth and education. Our Preschool classes are designed to offer comprehensive programs to support the education of each child. Teachers are positive role models for your child, encouraging independence, self-esteem, and cooperation. Our school promotes an education based in nurturing care. Daily conversations with children spark new learning experiences that allow children to become directors of their own learning in our Center.

We believe that parents and guardians are the most important teachers of their children. Communication between families and teachers helps foster a positive learning experience for your child, strengthening the bridge between home and school. We believe that creating a stimulating, accepting environment helps establish collaborative relationships with family. Our Center in Brunswick and Bath is open throughout the week, catering to family needs with a range of flexible services.

We believe that using positive guidance techniques works best for children. Children are encouraged to be self-regulators of their behavior, learning through the programs we offer. Teachers help children to achieve this goal by encouraging self-direction, self-control, and self-esteem. We believe that positive role modeling and age-appropriate materials help children express themselves during conflict, with the support of our trusted childcare professionals.

The Little Schoolhouse on Maine believes in providing the highest quality developmental care for each child in a caring, secure, and stimulating environment, satisfying the education needs of every family.
