Welcome from Owners

Welcome!  Thank you for choosing the Northwest Child Development Centers, owned by Vincent and Carol Pellecchia pioneers in the field (each with over 40 years of experience). They have been married for more than 31 years.  During that time they have worked together to be among the leaders in early childhood education and care.  As the executive directors of NCDC they truly look forward to working with you and your child to provide the best early childhood foundation from which to grow.

Hello Friends!

We would like to introduce you to our very best programs yet – the Northwest Child Development Centers (NCDC).  Established by Pam Warren in 1987 soon became known as the premier Preschool Center in Leominster and surrounding areas. We purchased NCDC in June of 2008 and have continued its exceptional curriculum and educationally advanced techniques.  We rely on our exceptional staff to bring the very best style of learning and teaching into each classroom. 

We added our Fitchburg Center to the NCDC name and have implemented our proven techniques and programs into each class. Our past relationships with providing Mount Wachusett Community College and Fitchburg State College (now University) with exceptional "on-site" Preschool, Kindergarten and School-Age programs,  have resulted in providing programs for children with cuting edge technology.

Carol and I both have over forty (40) years of experience in the field. We are also parents of three children (Ryan, Lucia and Zak) as well as four grandchildren (Sage, Lilly, Ivy and Cameron). We combine all of our experiences together for the education and benefit of the children and their families.

Each day is a brand new day of growth and discovery for your child and we are happy to be there to offer a helping hand. Always feel free to come and talk with us!

Thank you for choosing the Northwest Child Development Centers!

Vincent & Carol Pellecchia, Executive Directors
