Camp Sewataro

One Liberty Ledge Sudbury, MA

4.0(3)

9 mi

Since 1960, Sewataro has been sharing the joys of traditional day camping with boys and girls ages 3-15. From our Sprouts preschool program, all the way through our CIT program, campers are exposed to our beautiful, fifty-five acre north woods setting, including swimming pond, four pools, boating pond, zip line, rock wall, low and high ropes courses, music studio, tennis courts, paintball, and archery range. Lunch service is available. Bus transportation is available from Boston, Cambridge, and the Metro West area. Our campers gather from as close by as Sudbury, Weston, Wayland, Winchester, Concord, Lexington, and Brookline; and as far away as Beijing, South Korea, South Africa, Mexico, and Columbia. An Overnight Camp Experience in a Day Camp Setting Sewataro is a dedicated summer day camp rather that a school operating as a camp during the summer. The directors work year-round planning and developing summer programs, which campers enjoy in the great outdoors. Screen time is replaced by time spent in natural surroundings. All of the programming centers on having fun rather than being the best. Campers are encouraged to encourage one another to leave their comfort zones and try something new. Ideally, each camper should realize, "I am a capable person! I can tackle anything I put my mind to." As they overcome new challenges, children come away feeling good about themselves, believing they have something valuable to offer others.

Edith H. says "Both my daughters have attended for the past three years and this camp is everything you wish camp would be. The family is focused on the camp and only...

Licensed Family Child Care Educator by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. This is a small family run child care service, providing quality care to infants, toddlers and preschool age children. We are located in Lincoln, MA off of Route 2 East. Our space is well equipped with play areas, indoor and outdoor toys, books, craft supplies and a large backyard with a playground. Our goal is to immerse children in a home environment and raise them as a part of our family. While the children are our top priority, we believe that building strong lasting relationships with the families is crucial in the development of the children well after leaving Big Foot, Little Foot. The core curriculum is play-based and centered around the child's wants and needs. The children are able to make decisions for themselves but we are here to make sure that they are safe, acting appropriately among each other, fed, clean, but most importantly, comfortable in the environment. Our main goal is to create a home like and comfortable environment where all kids of different ages, backgrounds and abilities feel welcome and secure.

At Bouncing Bunnies Family Daycare, we are dedicated to creating a happy and stimulating environment that offers love, acceptance, and a place where every child feels safe and secure. Here, the safety, needs, and happiness of all children is our top priority. With over fifteen years of experience in the family childcare and preschool settings, we strongly believe that play is the work of young children. It is with this philosophy that we have created our environment, placing an emphasis on learning through play and exploration. Young minds are given the opportunity to grow and to create their own worlds through imaginary play, using all five senses to learn about everyday wonders. Our program is designed to allow children to socialize and interact with their young peers, while offering them the opportunity to play and explore in a variety of inventive, age-appropriate activities. Additionally, we enjoy a seasonal curriculum that focuses on the highlights that each season offers. We engage in a hands-on, sensory experience through arts-and-crafts and interactive story time. When the weather permits us to do so, we spend the majority of our time outside. With ride-on toys, a swing set, and neighborhood walks, we allow for an exploration of nature, exercise of gross motor skills, and an outdoor experience that is always fun-filled. My years as a mother and childcare provider have taught me innumerable lessons, such as the value of fostering creative thinking; the importance of outdoor play, musical enjoyment, and story time; as well as the power of independent reading, problem solving and self-help skills. I always discuss any concerns - physical or behavioral - with parents, and I view strong communication between families and myself with the highest regard. Although it's always sad to see the children grow up and move on from my home daycare to preschool or pre-K, parents can be confident that their children are prepared to thrive and succeed in a larger environment. Thank you for your interest in our program, and I look forward to working with you and seeing your little ones grow!
