Creative Minds Early Learning Center’s Story

Creative Minds Early Learning Center was privately owned and operated by Maura Sheehy Costello and Erica Jussaume. They opened their first program at 1385 Lakeview Avenue in Dracut Ma, in January 1999 for children aged infant through preschool. The programs grew very quickly and it wasn’t long before they opened their second program currently located at 920 Methuen Street, in Dracut with programs for children aged infant through school age. Next, in September 2010, Creative Minds of Tyngsboro opened at 164 Westford Rd, offering full and part time preschool. Then in January 2015, they opened their fourth location at 469 Nashua Road, Dracut with programs for Preschool and School Age children. Between the four locations, Creative Minds Early Learning Centers offers programs for children aged infant through fourteen.

In October of 2019, Erica has retired and Maura has taken on sole ownership. They had a wonderful 20 years growing the company together.

At Creative Minds, we realize that children learn through a variety of hands on experiences. It is our goal to provide a safe and stimulating learning environment in which to have those experiences.

Our teaching team consists of qualified, certified teachers. We pride ourselves in our low teacher turnover rate. All of our teachers are state certified for their positions, have been trained in CPR and first aid, and, most importantly, love children and their jobs.

We hope you will consider Creative Minds when making choices for your child’s care and early learning environment. We certainly think you will be happy you did!
