Description: Established in 1997, It Takes A Village Preschool is a quality education program accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). We educate children ages 6 weeks to 4 years old. For school age children, we provide the Village Kids -a before and after school program - and also the Homework Helpers program.
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.
