Enroll Your Child Today
Enrolling your child is the beginning of a relationship built on trust, respect, and open communication. Whether you’re seeking care for an infant, toddler, or preschooler, we’re here to make the process simple and transparent. Our team will walk you through each step — from your first tour to your child’s first day — ensuring you feel confident, supported, and informed along the way. At Northshore, every family is welcomed with care, and every child begins their journey in a loving, professional environment designed to help them thrive.
How to Enroll
Step 1: Schedule a Tour
Start by visiting our center to see our classrooms in action, meet our teachers, and experience the warm, welcoming environment that makes Northshore special. You can schedule your tour by calling us directly or using the Contact Us form
to request an appointment.
Before your visit, explore our Child Care Visit Questionnaire — a helpful checklist of questions to ask during any daycare tour, complete with our answers.
Step 2: Complete Your Enrollment Forms
After your tour, we’ll walk you through the simple enrollment process. Brightwheel makes enrollment easy! All forms you need to fill out and documents we need from you, including medical and emergency information, developmental history, allergies, are sent to your email to fill out online. If you receive or are in the process of receiving Child Care Financial Assistance (CCFA), we will start the process with you to get your assistance transferred to our school and work with you throughout that process.
Step 3: Prepare for Your First Day
Once your enrollment is confirmed, we’ll share everything you need to know for your child’s first day — what to bring, daily routines, and how to stay connected through our Brightwheel app. From the first good-morning smile to the afternoon pick-up, we’ll make sure you and your child feel comfortable, supported, and excited to begin this new chapter.
To understand your rights as a parent in Massachusetts, we also encourage you to review our Parents’ Child Care Rights resource before your first day.
