A non-profit, state-licensed, educational program of Family Service League for preschool children ages 18 months through 5 years.

Designed for flexibility for both parents and children, the North Fork Early Learning Center is open all year from 7:30am to 5:30pm with full day and half day schedules.

The staff is made up of professionals committed to meeting the emotional and educational needs of each child through a developmentally appropriate curriculum and child-centered learning experience.

Learning takes place in the context of a community of learners. In the classrooms and outside play yard, teachers and children work together developing positive self image, self confidence, and a sense of identity establishing a foundation for academic, emotional and social success.

Planned activities are a part of each day, but children learn to take an active role in making decisions about their daily activities as they choose from a variety of activity centers.

Learning also takes place through exploration. Children are encouraged to explore a variety of activities and centers, including blocks, dramatic play, circle time, music, stories, puzzles, cooking, art, clay, play dough, painting, water and sand, manipulatives, woodworking, neighborhood exploration, science, bikes, games, parachute play, climber and slide.

Staff works closely with family, encouraging them to communicate about their child, participate in parent-teacher conferences, educational workshops, and help in and around the center. Parents are encouraged to observe classroom activities and participate in programs.
