See what parents and teachers say about Carter Center for Children
"Madeline absolutely LOVES Carter and her teachers and friends there, and she is excited to go on 'school days', and even asks me if she can go on 'home days'! On weekends she'll ask, 'do I go to school tomorrow?' As a parent I feel really good about that and as a part time working mom I am very grateful! We could not possibly have made a better choice for our family than to send Madeline to Carter."
— The Doyles
”Caroline just loves it there at Carter - the things she has learned, the friends she has made, your wonderful staff - she has absolutely thrived in your care. We can never thank you enough.”
— Carter Parent
"As an old and familiar Carter family, we have always appreciated the warm, nurturing, caring and experienced teachers that the Carter Center for Children has long attracted and retained. Throughout our happy years at Carter with David, Jake and now, Betsy, we have had many playful — thank goodness — occasions to be grateful to Carter and its exceptional staff."
— Sara Romer, Carter Mom
"But it is the growth in emotional wisdom that has awed us the most. We hear the voices of every patient, loving and nurturing teacher at Carter in our own children. We gratefully realize that, with the gentle guidance of Carter teachers, our children have learned about getting along with others, accepting differences and having an awareness of a world that extends beyond home and school. These lessons will stay with them (and their parents) long past their preschool years."
— From a thank you letter written by group of parents
"We were truly blessed that Garrett attended Carter Center for Children in Needham, to which this book is also dedicated. The directors assured us that Garrett would always be welcomed with open arms and the teachers embraced him with tender vigilance and boundless affection. Garrett will never be in an environment, other than his own home, as secure and loving as Carter."
