  What We're About
 

Our Mission:  To provide the highest quality childcare regardless of family income.
Philosophy:
 At the Early Learning Centers of Lubbock, children experience new challenges and relationships to meet their physical, emotional, social and cognitive needs.  To ensure that their experience is successful, well equipped classrooms, trained teachers and ample materials are available.

Funding sources for the Early Learning Centers include state and federal funding, United Way, USDA Child Care Food Program, Parent’s fees, LISD, and other grants and donations.  The Early Learning Centers cooperates with many community groups to provide additional services to the children and families.   A joint effort between LISD and Early Learning Centers provides child care services on site at Matthews Alternative High School.  The Foster Grandparent Program and Texas Tech Jumpstart program provide over 50 classroom volunteers annually.

Early Learning Centers would like to thank the many organizations that help us provide quality childcare at an affordable price to the families in Lubbock and the surrounding areas and to the organizations who help us supply each classroom with developmentally appropriate educational materials: 

Lubbock Area United Way
CH Foundation

Read to your baby every day starting at six months of age. Reading and playing with books is a wonderful way to spend special time with them.  Hearing words over and over helps them become familiar with them. –www2.ed.gov/parents
