The Holway Early Childhood Centers -The Barn

At the Barn, we believe that young children learn through hands on play experiences, intellectual challenges, and social interactions with both peers and educators. Young children need to explore at their own pace and in their own style while given ample and appropriate choices and experiences throughout the day.

The Barn at Lasell University
  • The Barn is licensed by Massachusetts Department of Early Education and Care (DEEC).
  • The Connected Learning philosophy at the Barn enriches children's experiences, providing them robust opportunities to explore and discover.
  • The Barn is part of Lasell University, which allows children to have full access to Lasell's facilities, including the Brennan Library, the athletic center, and more.
