Early Learning
Blueprints Early Learning programs, including Head Start, Early Head Start, and Pre-K Counts, are designed to provide your child with a strong foundation for lifelong success while empowering you to create a brighter future for your family. Whether you’re looking for a preschool program to prepare your child for kindergarten or an infant and toddler program to support their growth and development, Blueprints offers high-quality, no-cost options tailored to meet your needs.
We offer both center-based and home-based program options, providing flexibility to suit your family’s schedule and preferences. Our center-based programs, available in select school districts, provide structured, engaging environments led by caring educators. Meanwhile, our home-based programs bring personalized learning and support directly to you and your child in the comfort of your home.
Our programs focus on fostering your child’s educational, social, and emotional development, ensuring they are ready to thrive in kindergarten and beyond. At the same time, we provide caregivers with valuable resources, guidance, and opportunities to help you achieve your personal and professional goals.
At Blueprints, they get an education, while you build your future. Join us in creating a pathway for growth, confidence, and success for your entire family.
