NEW Download Directory of Early Childhood Programs
We are very excited to announce the new waeyc directory is now online. Many years ago the “red book” was readily available with information on every early childhood program in Westchester but so many years have passed with older programs changing and new centers emerging. It is an invaluable resource for directors, parents and all businesses involved in early childhood. For a fee of $15.00, your center will be listed in the online directory. Complete the page of directory listing information and mail to me. Linda Jo Platt, at the address on the bottom of the information form.
