Early Learning Indiana is the largest and most venerable not-for-profit early childhood education provider in the state, operating 11 high-quality Day Early Learning centers and directly serving 1,350 children, ages six weeks to six years old every year. Our mission is to assure the highest level of early childhood education for children in Indiana. We employ a research-based curriculum in every classroom that addresses a child’s cognitive, social, emotional, and physical growth with opportunities for each child to explore and learn. Believing in the whole child, Early Learning Indiana takes a comprehensive approach to ensure a child’s complete well-being by providing nutritious meals, plenty of physical activity, health and immunization clinics, vision screening and referrals, dental clinics, early identification of special needs, and coordination with intervention specialists. Solid foundations built early in life mean that children transition better into elementary school and continue their path of learning, graduating from high school, going to college or joining the workforce, and ultimately breaking the cycle of poverty in which many of their lives begin.
