• Preschool: YWCA Developmental Preschool is Licensed by the Department of Human Services and is Nationally accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). The program focuses on the development and the education of the whole child; socially, emotionally, cognitively, and physically. Our Preschool provides children with a nutritious breakfast, lunch and afternoon snack which are USDA approved and assisted by the County of Hawaii Non-Profit Wai Wai Grant. The program served children between the ages of 2 through 5. We provided 9.5 hours of programing support per day for 243 days of the year for 149 children, 343,966 hours of preschool direct care, education and developmental services this year. Reliable early childhood care enables families to participate in the workforce. Assuming two caregivers per child: thats over 650,000 hours of potential workforce productivity supported through consistent childcare access. Additionally, we provided Literacy Nights two times per year for the whole family to engage families in early literacy activities that build home-to-school connections. Monthly we hold Family Support Groups (FAMILY HUI) offering guidance, peer connection, and emotional support to caregivers navigating early childhood parenting. These wraparound services strengthen family engagement, promote school readiness, and support whole-child, whole-family well-being.
