Childrens Center at Burke Gilman Gardens

The Children's Center (TCC) is committed to helping children grow into enthusiastic, kind, and confident learners by providing a broad curriculum designed to enhance their social, physical, and cognitive development. With our innovative program and nurturing environment, we strive to make a positive impact on the lives of our families and those in our community. TCC opened in 1998 to provide inclusive childcare and early learning programs for the community. We prioritize families experiencing homelessness or living in transitional housing, families with foster children, families living in Burke Gilman Gardens and other subsidized housing in the PDA area in which we are located, immigrant and refugee families, and children with disabilities. We offer free respite care for families in crisis, and partner with several local agencies to provide these services. We place no limit on enrollment for families receiving childcare subsidies and offer additional private scholarships for families in need.
