Bullfrogs and Butterflies
Bullfrogs & Butterflies (B&B) is a quality Christian preschool which has served Andover and the surrounding community since 1988. We have a committed and experienced staff. In fact, two out of three of our Lead Teachers have been at B&B for 30 years or more, and the third one since 2016. The whole staff go above and beyond, seeing their role as a ministry. In short, at B&B, we teach ABCs and we plant seeds of faith.
