UC Berkeley's Early Childhood Education Program serves more than 250 students - infants, toddlers, and preschoolers throughout our 5 locations (4 in Berkeley and 1 in Albany). We believe that high-quality education and care of the very young is crucial for development of the whole child and the future adult. We further believe that supporting an Early Childhood Education program that is consistent with Berkeley’s commitment to access and excellence promotes a more respectful and inclusive campus community and global society.
