About Wee Care JP

At Wee Care JP, our school is built to reflect Jamaica Plain, where we're located. We strive to make our children's lives as rich as possible through our inclusive, multi-cultural and anti-bias (including LGBTQ+) curriculum while delivering solid academic and social skills to fully prepare children for their next educational steps. We stress group learning to teach cooperation and problem-solving, while encouraging self-directed individual expression and exploration. The classroom environment is set up to enhance a child’s self-worth and build creativity. We incorporate lots of outside time and field trips. All of these components are combined with developmentally appropriate activities under the guidance of knowledgeable, compassionate, qualified, and supportive staff.

About Alicia Jno﹘Baptiste

I have 30 years experience in the daycare field. I joined Wee Care JP as Director in 2004, working in that role for 10 years. I then became the owner, buying the school and building in 2015. I'm originally from Roxbury. I went to college in Newton, MA and worked at a daycare there. I saw a difference in the knowledge offered to the children in the two neighborhoods, and wanted to know why. While I continued working in early education, including at Wee Care JP, I researched for six years, got my degree and brought my knowledge to all the neighborhoods I touched. I want all children to feel love, enjoy fun and playful experiences, exercise choices, and be given the academic foundation and independent skills they need to be successful in elementary school. I run the school from my heart, which is always about the children's well-being, while keeping to excellent standards for safety and education. The children always come first.
