Welcome from Madeleine Baker, Executive Director

Children are born curious and eager to learn. During the first years of life, significant growth occurs as children begin to develop intellectually, physically, emotionally and socially. Quality early childhood experiences in a safe, healthy, nurturing environment are the foundation for successful school readiness.

Children are the most important asset in our community. With the combined efforts of parents, teachers, legislators, media, friends and supporters, we can all make a difference for our young children, a difference which will be reflected in years to come in the young adults who lead our community.
