About Us
Our "Whole-Child" Approach
Branford Early Learning Center Inc. (BELC), a nonprofit child care and preschool center, is a State Department of Education funded agency providing the children of working parents with high quality, affordable child care and early childhood education. Our NAEYC accredited center concentrates on the whole child: nutritional well-being, physical and emotional health, social relationships and academic growth.
By achieving these goals for children in a warm, caring environment, the center allows parents to reach their goals of self-sufficiency with full confidence that their children are safe and well cared for. We support positive relationships among children, parents and staff by realizing that parents are their child’s first teacher and we need to work together to provide the best future for “our” children.
