Cornerstone Center
For Early Learning

Enhancing The Potential
Of Each Child Through A Higher Level Of Care

Cornerstone Center for Early Learning prepares each child for a lifetime of opportunity.

Did you know that 50 percent of a child's intellectual capacity is determined by stimulation after birth? And research shows that the preschool years are the most critical period for maximizing lifelong learning potential.

As St. Louis' first accredited early learning facility, Cornerstone Center is devoted to enriching the lives of children during this critical period of development. It is our firm belief that all children--regardless of socio-economic status and developmental ability--can succeed in life if they are educated from an early age and are encouraged to develop a positive sense of self-worth. This is the driving force behind all that we do.

Mission:

Cornerstone Center for Early Learning provides high-quality, affordable, comprehensive care and education for children while following a Constructivist philosophy that governs all aspects of operation. As a nonprofit, United Way agency, the Center enables parents to enter or remain in the workforce, or to seek higher education. Cornerstone Center encourages the development of all people within its sphere, promoting the autonomy, creativity, and initiative of children, staff, and family members.
