Preschool Education

Spark your child’s curiosity and joy!

Our preschool education programs are designed for children to enjoy a wide variety of activities such as story time, arts & crafts, songs, group games, and much more! Children will have a chance to build confidence, make friendships and feel like they belong.

Where Education Begins

Discover our engaging preschool programs designed to support your child’s growth and development. We have full-and-part-time programs. Our curriculum focuses on fostering creativity, social skills, and early learning through interactive and fun activities.

Why it Matters

According to the National Education Association, children in early childhood education programs are:

Less likely to repeat a grade

Less likely to be identified as having special needs

More prepared academically for later grades

More likely to graduate from high school

And, higher earners in the workforce

“Access to effective, diverse programs breaks down structural barriers that have prevented all children–particularly children of color and children from disadvantaged families–from achieving their full potential.”

YMCA Children’s Learning Center

The Children’s Learning Center is our early education center for youth between the ages of 6 weeks to 5 year old. We have created a safe and supportive environment that promotes each child’s self-confidence, curiosity, cooperation, and creativity.
