We are excited to announce the opening of our new licensed early learning center at the Taylor YMCA, created to serve preschool-aged children (ages 3–5).

We incorporate the HighScope Curriculum at our center, wihich is play based and research based. We believe in the power of play, and hands-on approach to learning. Our program will encourage exploration, independance, critical thinking skills, language and literacy, and will foster social emotional development. Our program is specially designed to prepare and ready your child for Kindergarten and beyond. 

We accept CCAP (Child Care Assistance Program) to help make quality early childhood education more accessible for families. More information can be found at actforchildren.org.
