Before the Bell

Before the Bell is licensed by the Department of Early Education and Care (EEC) and only offered in Peabody, available before school from 7:15 am to 9 am Monday through Friday.

Space and time to relax

We know mornings can be stressful for kids. Your child will have creative and fun activities to do if they choose, or quiet time to draw, write or read. If they need to review homework or study, we help by answering questions and offering support to ensure they complete their assignments correctly.

mindfulness and wellness
Mindfulness & Wellness

Starting the day in the right frame of mind

With a long school day ahead, we help your child get started on the right foot by incorporating mindfulness into our morning activities. Some days it might be a quick yoga lesson and others a short meditation session. Your child heads to school in their best frame of mind to concentrate and learn.

A place for every child

Our trained social workers create a nurturing environment that meets the needs of every child, including those who have emotional and behavioral challenges. By providing staff with the tools and support needed, all children can learn and grow in the hours before school by participating at their own level.
