Early Childhood Education
High quality and individualized learning for young children
What We Do
Our seven early childhood centers support the cognitive, social, creative and physical development of children ages 2 to 5. Our Family Child Care Network prepares community members to establish and run their own home-based child care businesses, serving children ages 8 weeks to 3 years in an educationally stimulating home-based setting.
Services & Programs
All child care centers and home care providers are licensed by the Department of Health and provide hot, nutritious meals to all participants. Because parent involvement is essential to child development, we encourage and welcome parents in all aspects of our programs.
Early Childhood Education Centers
Our mission is to provide children with a well-rounded program that includes all aspects of learning. Children receive individualized instruction that includes cognitive, social, creative and physical development. Five of our early childhood education centers operate from 8AM to 6PM and two operate from 8AM to 4:30PM. All programs are open year round.
We serve 500 children and their families in seven centers. Teachers in our pre-school program assist children ages 2 to 5 in a stimulating social and educational environment.
Family Child Care Network
Union Settlement’s Family Child Care Network prepares community members to establish and run their own home-based child care businesses. Our providers care for children ages 8 weeks to 3 years in an educationally stimulating home-based setting.
Open House/Meet and Greet Events
Parents and their children are welcome to visit the center, meet our teachers and explore the classrooms. Events will be posted online and announced in person.
