PROGRAMA PREESCOLAR EN LA Y y MacDonough

Phelps Ingersoll Center for Children

Our preschool serves a full continuum of families including those with and without economic challenges as it prepares children for their continued educational journey. The YMCA Preschool Program provides high quality, professional childcare and early childhood education to children age 3 – 5 years. The preschool provides a safe and nurturing environment that promotes the physical, social, emotional and cognitive development of young children.  In addition, the preschool acts as an education resource for parents and provides assistance in meeting the needs of the families served.

 

The preschool is licensed by the state of Connecticut, accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), and funded by the Middletown School Readiness Program. The Center uses the Middletown Preschool Curriculum, developed from the CT Preschool Curriculum and Assessment Frameworks. All preschool sites are staffed by well trained, caring professionals who will take great care of your child as they develop their own talents, uniqueness, and independence.
