Are you looking for something flexible and meaningful?
Good children’s books are the foundation of our curriculum, The Storybook Journey. Literacy Kits contain one or more copies of a selected book, plus a variety of other materials (games, manipulatives, puppets, other related books) to help our teachers develop their lesson plans around the concepts in the book.
We have almost 300 Literacy Kits that the teachers in all our Centers and Homes check out for use in their classrooms. We are seeking a volunteer to help check in the Kits when they are return, go through them to make sure the books are in good condition and that they are complete.
No special skills are required, just an interest in literacy or children's literature. You must be able to climb three flights of stairs. Our Literacy Center is on the 3rd floor of the Historic Day Nursery -- a building of charm and beauty, but no elevator.
The maximum commitment is once every other week about 1 hour each time.

Mission Statement
To provide high quality, comprehensive early care and education for ALL children.
Description
Early Connections Learning Centers (formerly Child Nursery Centers), was founded in 1897 to care for young children from lower income and working families. We operate five full-day, year-round centers for infants, toddlers and preschoolers and three before/after school and full-day summer programs for school-age children. Fees at all centers are based on family income. The Early Learning Ventures Alliance of the Pikes Peak Region, a partnership with independently-licensed child care Affiliates, offers the choice of smaller, more intimate settings and meets the needs of parents with non-traditional work schedules. Early Connections also operates Court Care, a free drop-in facility for children whose families have court-related business.
