Message From Mary Graham, Executive Director

With a click on your cursor, you can now see us through the eyes of the children.   We're celebrating our 35th birthday by expanding and welcoming more children and families — we also have a wonderful new look.  We're delighted to unveil our newly redesigned website, which includes beautiful images of children sharing, creating, and exploring with us here at Children’s Village.

While our look has been refreshed, our commitment to high-quality early care and education remains unchanged.  Children’s Village supports the needs of the whole child.  We foster a child’s social, physical, intellectual, emotional, and creative development, all within the context of the family.  This foundation best prepares a child to flourish throughout school and life.

Children’s Village respects that families are key to children’s learning success.  Children’s Village is an inclusive, collaborative community that embraces diversity; we welcome and support every family and encourage our families to get involved in the life of the center.

Our dedication to providing a safe, child-centered environment extends beyond the walls of our classrooms.  Children’s Village is a passionate early learning advocate.  We work to ensure that the doors to high-quality early learning and school-age enrichment programs are open to every child.

Throughout our history, we’ve benefited from the leadership and support of many individuals, including our volunteer Board of Directors.  I’m especially grateful to Board member Heseung Kim, Ed.D., President/CEO of Mighty Engine, for her marketing expertise.  Heseung and her Mighty Engine staff donated their time and talent to help us create our new website, logo, and other marketing materials.  Their effort is part of our plan to ensure we continue as a national model of excellence for many more years to come.

I hope you’ll visit our website often for announcements and updates.  Take a moment, too, and “stroll” through our Art Gallery; you’ll marvel at the children’s artwork on exhibit!

Executive Director
