We partner for success!

We will work with your whole family to help your child be successful. Our care team meets weekly to discuss how we are meeting your child and family’s needs.

  • We conduct home visits to help parents support their child’s education.  
  • We refer family members/provide access to other Family Partnership services as needed.
  • Your preschooler will receive individualized attention, and we get to know you as a family too.
  • Our Family Worker assists your family with any issues, needs or resources.

We provide highly rated education.

Our early childhood education and care is top-rated by leading authorities.

We are an Anchor Partner of the Northside Achievement Zone. NAZ partners use evidence-based practices to close the achievement gap for students of color. We have been accredited by NAEYC (National Association for the Education of Young Children) and 4-star rated (the highest level) by Minnesota’s Parent Aware. We have also been rated as Strong Beginnings Centers by Hennepin County and the Minnesota Department of Human Services. This rating requires additional program components (such as higher staff to child ratios) that deliver increased kindergarten readiness and family engagement.
