Accreditation matters

The Nest is an Indiana Paths to Quality Level 4 and nationally accredited by the National Association for Family Child Care. This accreditation is rigorous and is achieved by only 6% of licensed family childcare providers in Indiana.

Every child deserves
high-quality care

New Hope provides accredited early childhood care and education programs that help parents get back to work, and prepare children to succeed in school and in life. Research shows that access to high-quality education is key to making a positive, long-term impact on children and the communities where they live.

90% of the parents who have children enrolled in our early childhood education program were able to gain or maintain employment.

More than child care…

Longitudinal research demonstrates that funds invested in early childhood programs actually save money in the long term. This is true because a child's early experiences can (in part) determine his or her life trajectory. It is less expensive care for a child's basic needs and education, than to provide a lifetime of remediation/support/correction.

We know that kindergarten readiness is more than just pre-literacy skills. New Hope’s focus on whole-child care means we are invested in social and emotional development as much as physical and academic development.
