Meet Our Director

Hello and welcome! I’m Grace Phillips, the Center Director at Stellar Academy Bridgewater, and my greatest passion is creating a place where children feel loved, families feel supported, and everyone feels like they belong. Early childhood education has always been more than a career to me. It’s the privilege of building relationships that become part of my life long after a child leaves our classrooms. One of the most humbling parts of my journey has been staying connected with our families over the years, celebrating milestones from kindergarten all the way through high school graduation. To me, every child and every family who walks through our doors becomes part of my extended family and making sure you know you truly belong here is one of the most important parts of my job. My hope is that the moment you walk through our doors, you feel an immediate sense of warmth, trust, and connection, knowing your child will be cared for as if they were our own. I want you to leave feeling confident that you’ve found more than a school you’ve found a second home where your child is safe, celebrated, and deeply loved.

Teaching Philosophy
Every child deserves to feel loved, valued, and supported in a nurturing environment where they can learn, grow, and thrive at their own pace.
What Families Can Expect
My hope is that the moment you walk through our doors, you feel an immediate sense of warmth, trust, and connection, knowing your child will be cared for as if they were our own. I want you to leave feeling confident that you’ve found more than a school you’ve found a second home where your child is safe, celebrated, and deeply loved.
When Not At Work
When I’m not at work, you’ll probably find me planning my next meal. I’m a total foodie! I absolutely love entertaining, party planning, and finding any excuse to bring family and friends together. I’m also a proud Disney fanatic, have been married to my high school sweetheart for 23 years, and we have three incredible kids and two dogs who happily keep life loud and entertaining.

"Simply the best preschool experience in Bridgewater… be it the teachers, staff or support group…!each one always makes it a memorable day for our kids everyday. Thank you for the memories and the support!!"

"Stellar Academy is truly unlike any other preschool my children have attended. From the moment you walk through the doors, you can feel how much the staff genuinely cares about every child and family. The teachers are not only warm, nurturing, and attentive, but they also provide an exceptional academic foundation that has helped my children grow in confidence and develop a love of learning. What sets Stellar Academy apart is the incredible sense of family they create. As a parent, there is no greater feeling than knowing your children are safe, loved, and happy while you're at work. Every day, I feel like I'm leaving my children at a trusted family member's home rather than a school. The staff goes above and beyond to make every child feel special, supported, and valued. We are so grateful to be part of the Stellar Academy family and couldn't recommend them more highly to any parent looking for a caring, enriching, and truly exceptional preschool experience."
