The Long Beach Day Nursery, founded in 1912, provides affordable care and education for young children of working parents, from six weeks to six years of age.
The Atlas Family Foundation provides funding for Family Support Services including the Early Intervention and Infant Care Programs.
The Early Intervention Program provides early intervention and parent education resources for families with special needs children. These children are identified as those who demonstrate limited language skills, learning disabilities, health issues, mild to moderate developmental delays, problems with attention and focus, speech impairment, and social, behavioral or family dysfunction.
The Infant Care Program provides high quality, age-appropriate, early-care and education for up to 42 children of working parents, ages 6 weeks to 18 months. Infant Care principles are grounded in the belief that relationship based care and low teacher/child ratios are crucial to providing the highest benefit to those children in care. This helps ensure that infants receive individual care and attention and that long-term partnerships develop between teachers and parents.
