New to Harvard: Early Ed with Purpose
We are Babilou Family US; thoughtfully designed early education and care for infants through pre-K—now on the Harvard campus.
New School. Experienced Roots.
Babilou Family US is the U.S. arm of one of the largest global early childhood education networks, spanning 10 countries, 1,260 schools, and with more than 100,000 children in our care worldwide. We are guided by shared standards, deep expertise, and a commitment to continuous learning.
This new school at Harvard’s Enterprise Research Campus (ERC) in Allston will be our flagship location, reflecting our belief that children learn best when they feel safe, supported, and free to explore the world around them. Now enrolling for September, get your spot today!
Designed with real children in mind

Hands-on, play-based learning that builds early literacy, math, collaboration, problem-solving, and school-readiness skills, all while fostering confidence, independence, and emotional regulation.
