About Cadence Academy Preschool, Smithfield

Cadence Academy Preschool, Smithfield offers high quality child care and early learning for infants, toddlers, preschool, pre-kindergarten, and school age children. Our early learning program centers around our unique Children’s Workshop Framework curriculum, which combines RI Early Childhood Standards with the Massachusetts state standards and centers around play to provide your child with an educational experience unlike anywhere else.

Our school age buses and vans provide transportation to and from Smithfield and Johnston Elementary Schools. In addition, we service areas of North Scituate. If you are unsure if we service your area, please give us a call!

Our school is located on Cedar Swamp Road, right off Route 44 about a mile past the Smithfield Crossings. Our spacious layout gives a one-of-a-kind feel to the classrooms and allows each age group their own learning experience. We have two large playgrounds nestled safely behind our school to allow for lots of outdoor experiences, natural exploration, and safe gross motor time outside with similar age groups.

Parent Communication App

We have an extraordinary Parent Communication App that our teachers use daily to relay information and send pictures to family members, send newsletters, and track developmental progress for each child’s portfolio! With this application, parents/guardians are able to opt into email or text alerts and they can receive any information, instantaneously, about their child and their child’s school day.

Teachers and staff can tag daily pictures with our Developmental Domains (Social/Emotional, Physical, Artistic, Cognitive, and Language/Literacy) and are then able to communicate with the parents/guardians by adding captions or sending quick little notes. Families LOVE this feature and we’re utilizing it more and more each day! We are so excited to be able to communicate with our families throughout the day and to show them what their children are learning each day.

I have been in the field of Early Childhood Education for over 15 years. I started out as a classroom teacher and as my experience and education grew, so did my passion to make a difference in the lives of children and families. I believe that every child deserves a positive early learning experience because it is their first love of learning that will help them grow into lifelong learners. I would love to meet with you and show what our school has to offer. I know we will leave a lasting impression!

Our experience with Cadence Academy has been amazing. The staff are always positive and clearly care about my daughter. Miss. Laura and Miss. Spring are kind and caring and I always feel that I have great communication with them. The pictures we receive of our daughter during the day give me such peace of mind and show how much progress she has made since she started. I would absolutely recommend Cadence Academy to any family.

The staff at Cadence have been so great. My children love their teachers and they always look forward to going. One of my children has a severe food allergy and they have been really diligent with keeping him safe. Their app provides us with updates which gives us a peace of mind. The Director is very involved as well, you can tell she really cares about the children.

Our experience with Cadence has been nothing short of exceptional in every way. The Director and staff continually pour themselves out to support each student and understand that not all children are the same. An approach that might work for one student may not work for another, and they invest themselves wholly into figuring out what approach is most successful for your child. As a parent of a high-energy 4yo who has struggled to keep his cool when frustrated/upset, I would carry incredible anxiety to work each day worrying about his behavior at school. But the staff at Cadence has supported our family from day one. They recognize that you can't boil the ocean in one day and were willing to put in the time and communicate with us openly to find solutions that suit his needs. They love him, build his self-esteem, and have taught him so much about self-regulation of feelings/body when he's struggling. As a parent, I couldn't ask for anything more.
