Description: The Frederick Douglass Center provides essential services to children and families on Manhattan's Upper West Side. There's a little something here for everyone, from our Head Start program for 3-5 year olds to English-language training for adults.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
