Description: With renovation nearing its final stages, enrollment is now open for the new Creative Steps Early Care & Education Center, merging the Creative Steps Playgroup into University Settlement, a longtime leader in early education in New York City. The new program will serve 78 children in a renovated and expanded, state-of-the-art facility with one infant/toddler and four preschool classrooms. Classes are set to begin in January 2014. For enrollment inquiries, visit Creative Steps.
"Creative Steps has been in the community for many years, but in the new relationship with University Settlement the program will not just be larger, but will represent the most rigorous, creative, and comprehensive approach to early childhood development," says Nina Piros, University Settlement's director of early childhood programs.
“By bringing the Settlement's resources to this new site, the program available to parents and children will meet and exceed the highest standards guiding this field, which include: what happens in the classroom regarding educational and social development; teaching training and development, including an association with the NYU Steinhardt School of Education, Culture, and Human Development; availability of supplemental services, including early intervention, family child care, mental health services, and more."
