In 2006, on the occasion of our 16th Birthday, we threw a fundraising party that helped us build our library! Learn more…
The “Block Party” we hosted in April 2013 was initially imagined as a simple fundraiser for outdoor blocks and evolved into a community process that highlighted the importance of the learning environment and celebrated the capabilities of children. Learn more…
We want to let you in on a wonderful opportunity!
In memory of our dear friend and Children First Mom Judy Byck, we are selling this fabulous new Limited First Edition book: “Things You Can Do if Your Friend is Hurt or Sad.” Learn more…
When founding Children First parent Maureen Soper died in April 2017, her family designated Children First as a recipient of donations in her honor. Learn more…
Children First is a unique early care and education program for children, and a unique community for children, families and their teachers. We commit to putting “children first” here everyday, a commitment we express through our words, our practice, and also our decisions about financing this organization. Care and education of uncompromising quality costs a lot – significantly more than we raise through tuition and fees alone.
If you would like to contribute to our Annual Fund, we would welcome your help! Because we are a non-profit (501(c)(3)) corporation, your contributions are completely tax-deductible. And because we are such a small community, every person who participates makes a big difference.
When we allow ourselves to dream, we image opening our doors to children regardless of their family’s ability to pay the full cost of tuition. If you share that dream and have ideas or resources to help us make it happen, we would love to hear from you.
… I met some Friends of the Family, friends among the best I’ve ever known…
Well! This is Children First! It's a real school, and it's mine."
Children First is a non-profit preschool where parents and teachers cooperate to provide care and education of uncompromising quality for young children.
