About Me

Hello, I am Kathy D’Agostino and I am the owner and operator of Kathy’s House Family Child Care and Preschool. I have had the pleasure of operating my preschool for thirty years and I have numerous alumni in the Watertown area who have gone on to high school and college! I am a strong advocate for children and firmly believe that a family child care environment has numerous benefits for children, including individualized attention, opportunities to gain social skills in a safe environment and to learn through experimentation and teamwork.

I believe that teachers are partners in learning with children. For that reason I offer a high quality child directed, teacher supported program for children.

At Kathy’s House the teacher acts as a guide for the children. The children are involved in planning the daily activities and projects. In this way, your child will learn that they (and their thoughts and ideas) are valued and respected. Children learn cooperation and negotiation, trial and error, problem solving and many other important skills, which they will carry with them for the rest of their lives.
