The Early Childhood Center Welcomes You!
The Early Childhood Center is a non-sectarian private preschool for children between the ages of 21 months and five years old.
For over fifty years, we have made our home on the ground floor of The Memorial United Methodist Church on Bryant Avenue in White Plains.
In the past half century, there have been many changes in the way childhood is viewed. Trends have come and gone, but at ECC we continue to believe that children have the right to be children and that all children learn best through open-ended and child-initiated play. Definitive research in the field of Early Childhood Development has clearly shown the correlation between children's play and the learning and social developments that helps children to find later success in school.

Preschoolers test their developing ideas with the objects, people and situations that are present during play. This exploration is an integral part of academic learning. As they play together, each child develops physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively.
Observing their students at play provides our well-trained and experienced Early Childhood Educators the opportunity to assess the development of each child. Our teachers are then able to promote, guide, respond to, and extend the children's play-based learning.
Our classes are filled with happy and enthusiastic learners, guided by nurturing and supportive teachers.
We invite you to visit us!
