Daycare Center
Free To Be A Child
Corticelli Street, Florence, MA 01062
About
Free to be a Child is a home-based, Reggio-inspired program for a mixed-age group of homeschoolers and preschoolers, run by Lise McGuinness. FtbaC currently serves children 3 through 13 years old.
Homeschooling your child, but need child care while you work? I'd love to work with you. Your child will spend their days immersed in nature, delving deeply into projects of their own design, exploring the hundred languages of children in our well-stocked art studio, eating local organic food, and snuggling on the couch to read excellent children's literature from our vast library.
I have 29 years experience as a teacher and 7 years experience as a homeschooler.
I am currently accepting applications for homeschooled 5-13 year olds and for preschoolers ages 3 and up.

FtbaC is working hard to keep children and families safe during the pandemic. We are currently operating outdoors and require covid vaccination.
