Ibero Early Childhood Services Center at 777 Clifford Avenue offers an award-winning program that serves as a local model. With a parent engagement rate of 95 percent and the high attendance record for children under 5, both local and national leaders come to us for research and guidance.

​

Children as young as six-weeks-old through the age of four prepare for school with direct hands-on support from our experienced bilingual and bicultural staff. Together, they work on developing their motor skills, establishing regular reading habits, socialization, and health and wellness.

​

Staff also work with parents to help them identify and achieve goals for themselves and their entire family. We also collaborate with a strong on-site PTA to fully engage parents in all aspects of their children’s education, including the interview process and the planning of activities and workshops.

Oregon Leopold is a non-profit organization that has been serving the early childhood community since 1971.  After operating a nursery school for five years, the members of St. Simon’s Episcopal Church decided to open a child care center based on expressed parental needs in the community.

​

We serve the Northeast portion in the city of Rochester, but any city resident can apply.

​

We offer free EPK and UPK programs through the Rochester City School District during the school year and offer Summer Leap through the Greater Rochester Learning Association during the summer for six weeks for EPK and UPK children.  We also have a before and after school program, plus a summer program for children 5-12 years old; for families that are eligible through Monroe County DHS or private pay.
