Commerce Early Learning Center

All Y Early Learning Centers feature the following measure to ensure the safety and well-being of our participants:

• Protected entryway with key fob system
• CCTV cameras in all classrooms and hallways
• Full-time director on site with additional layers of leadership oversight and operational support
• Regulated and licensed by the state and participate in state Quality Rating Systems

In a typical day, children are provided with hands-on, playful, developmentally appropriate experiences both indoors and out. Instruction builds upon prior learning and developed skills as children age up through the program, ensuring readiness for learning and entry into Kindergarten.

Children go outside every day, when the temperature is between 25 – 90 degrees, and there is no active precipitation or advisory to stay indoors.

Daily communication is provided through Tadpoles, a home and school app that supports two-way communication and sharing of resources, information, and photos.

All staff meet or exceed state requirements and have access to continuous education and training.

Please provide any necessary personal care items for your child, including: diapers, wipes, a change of clothing and naptime bedding. For infants, please supply a crib sheet. Please contact your local center for additional details, including snacks and meals.
