About Pumpkin Patch Early Learning Center in Cranston, RI

Welcome to Pumpkin Patch Early Learning Center & Academy, a devoted preschool, daycare, and pre-kindergarten care provider located at 220 Comstock Parkway in Cranston, RI. Families can find us near South Comstock, or just off the Plainfield Pike Exit. We serve families across Western Cranston—including neighborhoods like Oaklawn and Alpine— and we have built a reputation for nurturing each child’s individuality in welcoming, secure, and fun setting.

Inside our bright, organized classrooms, we promote growth through age-appropriate play and exploration. Safe, secure, and thoughtful—from our code-protected entrance to our handicap-accessible features—we’re committed to giving you peace of mind while your child flourishes.

Programs We Offer

We accommodate children at every early stage of development with thoughtfully tailored programs:

  • Infant Care (6 weeks – 18 months): A nurturing environment where infants build confidence, curiosity, and communication skills through exploration, bonding with caregivers, and sensory experiences.

  • Toddler Program (18 months – 3 years): Supportive, stimulating classrooms where toddlers develop independence through play and meaningful social interaction.

  • Preschool (3 years –4 years): Inspiring learning through investigation and play, focusing on social-emotional, physical, cognitive, and language development to help children discover their identities and engage with peers.

  • Pre-Kindergarten (4 years – 5 years): Engaging young learners to build the confidence, knowledge, and skills that will help them succeed in Kindergarten and beyond.

Our Pre-Kindergarten is a great option for families who were unable to get into the state program. For any questions on how we can help your child thrive, please reach out to our school leadership to learn more!
