Late post: Happy 20th Anniversary to our Central Pacific location! On January 2, 2021 we opened our doors to the community, providing two part day preschool sessions, AM & PM. Parents are greeted daily at drop off and pick up by Ms. Alma, Site Supervisor and Christina, Family Services Specialist. This is the only Young Horizons center that closes for the summer and winter break. Fun fact: prior to it being converted to a preschool center, this was a shopping center!

We hope you have a warm and safe holiday weekend. We will be closed tomorrow, Wednesday, December 23rd through Friday, December 25, 2020 and return to school on Monday, December 28, 2020. @younghorizonskohn @younghorizonscentralpacific @yhgrisham @younghorizons_northpacific @younghorizonsludloff

Please Make a Difference with #LongBeachGives in the lives of young children and families we serve. Will you help us reach our goal of $10,000? The mission of Young Horizons Child Development Centers is to provide quality childcare and preschool programs in a caring, loving and learning environment. Young Horizons has been supporting children and families throughout the city of Long Beach for over 50 years. Young Horizons is one of the largest childcare providers in Long Bea...ch with five centers and serving over 400 children (ages six months to five years). Our state funding does not fully cover all operating expenses; therefore, we count on community partners, such as you, to support our programs. Parents go to work or to school with peace of mind knowing their child is safe and cared for in a caring, loving and learning environment. Children love to play, learn and spend their day in their "home-away-from-home" early education program that includes a hot breakfast, lunch and snack. By assisting low-income families with full day care for little to no cost, we ensure that not one, but two generations have a chance of success.
