Increasing School Readiness
Little Learners is a comprehensive Infant/Toddler, Preschool and Childcare program that serves children from birth through age five, and their families. The program is child-focused and has the overall goal of increasing the school readiness of young children. It offers individualized services in the areas of education, medical, dental, nutrition and social services.
Program Eligibility
All Connecticut children ages 6 weeks through 5 years are eligible to apply, regardless of household income. We operate a sliding fee scale based on a child’s age, family size, and household income. Our program accepts Care 4 Kids as well as other subsidies to help offset the cost of childcare.
