About Cadence Academy Preschool in Ashland, MA
Ashland Early Education is now Cadence Academy Preschool! Our mission is to provide the highest quality infant, toddler, preschool and kindergarten programs and proudly serve the community. The four cornerstones of Cadence Academy Preschool are:
- Inspirational Curriculum
- Well-Supported Educators
- Unparalleled Parent Communication – Watch your child’s day unfold with snapshots delivered to your mobile device and stay in touch with your teacher and strengthen school learning with activities at home.
- Unmatched Cleanliness – Cadence Academy Preschool complies with all Massachusetts Department of Early Education Regulations. Additionally, the entire facility is professionally cleaned EVERY night. Throughout the day, staff sanitize and disinfect using hospital grade, child safe products to reduce the spread of illness. Children practice hand washing between activities and tasks multiple times throughout the day.
Cadence Academy Preschool is a freshly renovated 10,000+ square foot facility, providing a safe, welcoming, and fun atmosphere for children to learn, explore, and become part of a community.
Kind Child
Preschool children need much more than intellectual development and our Kind Child programming gives us the opportunity to nurture social skills and build positive friendships. We focus on new social and emotional skills each month as a part of our curriculum and our directors, teachers, and staff are committed to bringing kindness into their daily interactions with our students and with each other. The result is a Kind School where everyone feels welcome and at home.
Is Your Child Ready for Kindergarten?
Providing your child an exceptional education that effectively prepares them for kindergarten is an important part of our brand promise. Our proprietary Ascend Curriculum takes a unique skill-based approach to early education that is proven to prepare young minds for success in elementary school!
The Ascend Curriculum provides our teachers a connected and flexible matrix of educational activities that progressively build valuable skill sets across nine subjects every month. These activities start in our Infant and Toddler programs and progress all the way through Preschool and Pre-Kindergarten. We help our students reach important developmental milestones in every program and fine-tune certain skills just before kindergarten in Kindergarten Club.

Our Team
Kathleen Cauley
School Director
I graduated from Aquinas College in 1989 studying Early Child Education. I enjoy working closely with my teaching team, and the children and families at our school. Especially watching the children grow and achieve all their milestones of development. Through the years I have taught Preschool and Toddlers along with being a school director. I am EEC Lead I/T, Lead PS, and DII certified. I started at Cadence Academy Preschool in August 2022 as the School Director. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends.
Brianna McCaffrey
Assistant Director
Hi there! I’m Brianna McCaffrey, the Assistant Director. I graduated in 2017 from Southeastern Regional Vocational High School, where I focused on Early Education. The most rewarding part of my work in early childhood education is getting to know the families and children and seeing the milestones that children achieve. I love watching them grow, explore, and transform over the years.
Back in high school, I worked as a teacher assistant and started my journey at my first childcare center as a TA in 2016. I became a certified Teacher in 2017. I started as a Preschool Teacher with Cadence Academy Preschool in September of 2020. Over time, I completed college courses through Penn Foster and moved up to the role of Assistant Director in December of 2023.
In my free time, I cherish moments with friends and family. I love traveling, exploring new places, and trying new experiences. I truly enjoy the diverse adventures life has to offer.
Ms. Erika
Teacher of the Year
Hello Cadence families! My name is Ms. Erika and I am the Pre-K teacher. With nine years of experience in childcare and early education, I have had the pleasure of teaching across various age groups. I particularly enjoy working with Pre-K students, as it’s a thrilling time filled with growth right before they transition to kindergarten. My favorite classroom activities involve science experiments and creative art projects. When I’m not teaching, I love spending quality time with my husband and two children, exploring different restaurants, reading, and indulging in painting!
