Description: For more than 100 years, Early Learning Indiana was known as Day Nursery. Under that name, we spent more than a century building a reputation as Central Indiana’s standard-bearer for excellent child care. In 2014, Day Nursery changed its name to Early Learning Indiana, and our early childhood centers became known as Day Early Learning centers.
As Early Learning Indiana, our goal is to continue our tradition of being the area’s best source for child care services and resources, while embracing a larger role as an advocate and leading voice for early childhood education in Indiana. Our mission every day is to assure the highest quality early childhood education for children in Indiana.
Ideas and practices about child care have changed a great deal in the past one hundred years. Today, child care is about developmentally-appropriate learning for all ages, starting at infancy and carrying through to kindergarten age. At our Day Early Learning centers we care for and educate children ages 6 weeks through 6 years, all day, year round.
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.
