    Our Purpose

    Our mission is to provide high-quality early childhood education to young children and educational enrichment to school-age children for families of all economic levels and diverse backgrounds.

    Our Impact

    Committed to providing the highest quality program, Children's Village supports the needs of the whole child. We foster a child's social, physical, intellectual, emotional, and creative development.

    Key Programs

    Toddler Program
    [13 months - 3 years] The Toddler Program focuses on the development of self-identity, healthy self-expression, and the independence afforded by beginning mastery of self-care skills.

    Preschool Program
    [3- and 4-year olds, and children turning 5 after Sept. 1] Integrating literacy, math, science, and social studies, with a year-long emphasis on reading and writing skills, this program allows children to actively explore and come to new understandings about themselves and their surroundings.

    School-Age Program
    [Elementary school children, ages 5-12] The School-Age Program provides a safe, caring, and academically enriching environment for children after school when school is in session and all day on school holidays and during summer vacation.
