About Us


Celebrating over 50 years of excellence!


We are Aquidneck Island’s longest running early childhood education program and best kept local secret. Our fun educational facility is centrally located on 20 beautiful acres. Please stop by to see why families love Silveira’s!


Silveira Kindergarten & Nursery School offers an exciting early childhood education program that

encourages a life long love of learning. We make education a family experience by nurturing and

guiding your child to grow while discovering and exploring the world. Our curriculum combines

tradition and cutting edge practices around the RI department of Education’s Early Learning Standards

and the Grade Level Expectations for Kindergarten. We integrate structure with freedom of expression

through play and hands on activities across our curriculum, our enrichment programs and opportunities

for parent involvement. And we make school fun! Our teachers are caring educators and highly trained

in their fields. As the oldest private preschool on Aquidneck Island, we have a proud tradition of

offering our students a happy, clean, quality learning environment including our large open classrooms, a

new gymnasium, a large fenced playground and over 20 acres of nature trails. Our curriculum is enhanced

through local field trips, guest speakers, diverse events, science, music and language enrichment programs.

Enroll today and watch your children grow and flourish in our truly unique school!





Play and Activities

We encourage learning and development through play and activities. Our facility includes spacious, stimulating, exciting classrooms. Outside, we have a large fully-equipped and fenced playground featuring a large sandbox, driving track, and playhouse.


Our History

Gladys R. Silveira founded Silveira Kindergarten and Nursery School and celebrated her first graduation in June 1957. "Fun With Learning," combined with a commitment to provide young children a secure, nurturing and structured environment, was her founding principle.  In 1997, Theresa Silveira Spengler accepted a full-time Co-Directorship and joined her mother as a team teacher.  In 1999, Mrs. Spengler became Director and Owner of Silveira Kindergarten and Nursery School.

Our Philosophy

Silveira's educational philosophy makes the difference to our young students and their families!

• We combine order and guidance with fun, laughter and freedom of expression.

• We recognize and encourage each child's individuality.

• Our students are provided the opportunity to develop at their own speed and achieve their highest potential.







Our new gym opened in September 2008 and emcompasses oppurtunities for gross motor development throughout the whole year.
