Providing an Education of Excellence Through an Emergent Curriculum and Anti-Bias Approach

Who We Are

Since 1973, Brown Fox Point Early Childhood Education Center has provided a high quality full-day preschool program to families that live, work or study in our community. Formed by Brown University and the Fox Point Neighborhood Association, we incorporated as an independent non-profit agency in 1979.

    Our Anti-Bias Approach

    We believe all children deserve and are entitled to high-quality and equitable early education and care, regardless of race, culture, linguistic difference, economic circumstances, gender identity or presentation, family structure, disability or physical appearance.

  • Our Credentials

    We are licensed by the Rhode Island Department of Human Services, accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children, and rated five stars by the Rhode Island Association for the Education of Young Children’s BrightStars rating agency.

  • Our Staff

    Our four mixed-age classrooms each has three dedicated and caring full-time teachers. All lead teachers have a bachelor’s or master’s degree in early childhood education or a related field and many of our educators have more than a decade of teaching experience.

“Brown Fox Point is an amazing learning center. The entire staff are caring, thoughtful and collaborative. It has been exciting to watch how our little one has thrived since coming to the Brown Fox Point. The teachers are dedicated and really skilled. The classrooms are fun and dynamic and their approach to helping kids learn and grow has made a huge difference in not only the educational growth of our little guy but his emotional and social development. I can't say enough how amazing this place is!”
