The Family Learning Center is committed to providing quality care and early childhood learning programs for children aged eight weeks to six years in the Edwards Eagle River Valley of Eagle County, Colorado. In order to fulfill our mission we rely on the generosity of donors like you. 

Tuition is charged below cost in order to be affordable for all families and sliding-scale rate options are available to those in need. To date, FLC provides financial assistance to over 75% of our families and over 65% of FLC students have the additional risk factor of being second language learners.

We want all children and families to have access to early education programs regardless of income level. When our children succeed, our community succeeds. The Family Learning Center is reliant on the generosity of foundations and individual donors in order to achieve our mission. Please consider becoming a "Champion for Children" today!

"I think that the staff at the Family Learning Center is wonderful. I would not want my son anywhere else or in anyone else's care...I love the idea of being secure and not having to worry about him when working because he is in a wonderful, loving environment."

"Thank you for taking such exceptional care of our children...we are so grateful for the love and nurturing they have both received over the years."

"Thank you for all the love, guidance and learning you have given to our children...our son's transition into kindergarten has been seamless and I believe that is due, in large part, to the wonderful teachers and staff at the Family Learning Center who have helped prepare him since he was 8 weeks old...with a fabulous beginning to his education."
