Early Head Start / Early Start / Infant-Toddler Childcare

Located in Skokie, IL, the Early Head Start / Early Start / Infant-Toddler Childcare program, operated by the Evanston/Skokie School District 65 Family Center, is dedicated to providing comprehensive child development and family support services for low-income infants, toddlers, and pregnant women. Our program offers a variety of options tailored to meet each family's needs, including center-based care that delivers enriching early learning experiences, home-based services through biweekly visits where trained staff support parents in fostering their child's growth, and family child care in nurturing, home-like environments. Additionally, we provide combination services that integrate both home and center-based approaches. Throughout the year, families are invited to participate in group activities that encourage learning and connection. We strive to support families with resources in nutrition, health, mental health, and child development, ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive. Visit us to learn more and enroll today!
