New Holland Early Learning Center provides the foundation for lifelong learning for more than 112 children a year, from the age of six weeks through fourth grade. At the Center, children learn through play in a loving and inclusive environment. Teachers focus on the individualized needs of each child. And, parents can go to work knowing their children are safe. Currently, 49 percent of the students receive scholarships or subsidies to attend. And, 12 percent of the Center’s students receive specialized behavioral and/or other developmental in-classroom supports. For forty-three years, New Holland Early Learning Center has been focused on the building blocks of our community — our children.
The children are happy to greet their friends and teachers, cuddle our Center's emotional support rabbits, garden in the New Holland Mennonite Church's Sprouts for Peace Garden, and explore through field trips in our community.
State subsidies cover 85 percent of tuition costs. Each year, the Center raises about $1,000 per child over and above tuition costs. In addition, the Center strives to provide scholarships for families with income just slightly above the state guidelines. In order to meet the individualized needs of all students, we continually search for additional teachers to work with our children in small groups as well as one on one.
Thank you for helping us spread the joy of serving our community and share the gifts of education, play and love every day!

New Holland Early Learning Center provides quality care and education for children and supports the individual needs of each student in a faith-based community. The Early Learning Center is currently doing a capital campaign to do improvements to our facility and currently on phase 2 with raising money for our kitchen remodel. We, also, need to make $30,000 annually as a non-profit on top of our tuition so we may provide quality care to our children.
Our mission is to support the individual needs of every child and to provide quality care and education for children in the New Holland area. We envision a community where working parents are supported, children reach their full potential and education is individualized to meet the needs of every child.
