Infants, toddlers and preschoolers grow so quickly, and we are happy to provide young children with a healthy start. Read these stories of parents and children who benefited from the YWCA of the Hartford Region:

"My children attend the Growing Tree ELC in Hartford. I thank all the teachers at the Growing Tree for all the changes and all they have done for my children. As a parent, I feel that my children are safe and in an environment that helps them learn. All the classrooms have appropriate furniture, and it feels very inviting for me and my children. My children can't wait to get to school in the morning. I hear them say that school is fun."

"My child attended preschool at the YWCA Elmwood Early Learning Center. She absolutely loved the program, its caring teachers and the great facilities. Every day, I would pick her up, and she would be bubbling over with descriptions of what she did that day. She made friends and learned a lot, without even realizing she was learning, because she was having so much fun. I was able to work, knowing my child was safe and well loved. Thank you, YWCA!"
