Birth to 5A special dimension of our full-day program in the Early Childhood Center is the opportunity to grow and participate in all Center programs. Many children who begin in our Infant/Toddler Program move on to the preschool, the summer camps and then to after-school programs. As part of the ECC, you will automatically have a family membership at the Mandell JCC.
