Legos for Everyone
Each of our Child Enrichment centers experience an increased number of school age children during spring , summer and winter breaks . Offering a safe and fun place to spend this time our teachers are often in search of interesting things for the children to do . A local student named Nicholas offered to share his interest of Legos during Christmas vacations and we couldn ’ t say no . Nicholas ’ family has been regularly involved with Neighborhood Alliance for many years . He excited to get the chance to share his hobby with the younger kids at our center along with teaching them how to get the most out of their Lego sets .
During his presentation Nicholas briefly covered the history of Legos along with sharing a few pieces of his collection and offered the children tips on how to cultivate their own collections . What a fantastic idea !!!! Thank You Nicholas and the whole Mackin family for spending an afternoon with us over Christmas break . We truly appreciate your support . # Legos # LegosforEveryone
Neighborhood Alliance Child Enrichment Services offer quality child care programs for low income households so parents can attend school or to find and maintain employment , leading to opportunities to improve their current financial situation . It is imperative that low-income children attend early childhood centers that focus on kindergarten readiness skills . The children at our centers are cared for daily by our certified , dedicated and compassionate staff who provide our children with a safe , nurturing and positive environment that allows them to thrive and learn . The children who attend the Centers become like family to our staff ; as the children grow up together , they form close bonds with their peers and staff alike . Each child ’ s milestones are celebrated . The staff truly believes in what they do and wants to see each child achieve their academic goals while laying a strong foundation for future educational success to build upon .
Due to current funding specifications , families must be at 130 % of the poverty level and working or attending school to access subsidized programming . Our goal is to provide a strong educational background to all the non-transient children in our program as well as provide a positive experience for those children who do not complete the school year at one of our centers . Our locations in South Lorain and South Elyria place us in areas of greatest need where our impact can be
the greatest as well .
