Our hours of operation are from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Classroom assignments are based on a child's chronological age. All classes are available on a 3, 4, or 5 day basis. Parents may choose from a variety of time schedules. We are an approved subsidized care provider.

CORA Services's Early Years Preschool and Child Care Center offers parents a child-centered program. Children are encouraged to develop their social, physical, and cognitive potential to the fullest.
