Early Education Center

COA’s Early Education Center provides a safe and nurturing environment in which children ages six weeks to five years can learn and develop the skills for future academic and social success. Our educational philosophy is that children learn best when they are provided hands-on experiences. In each of our classrooms, the Early Education Center provides content-rich, developmentally appropriate curriculum that supports children’s natural curiosity and interests while fostering critical thinking skills and healthy social-emotional development, and building the competencies they need to be successful learners.

A family-centered programming approach is at the core of all COA programs. We take a holistic, family-centered approach to enhance learning, where young children and caregivers have the support they need to thrive.
