Our innovative approach to early education is inspired by Reggio Emilia and Resources for Infant Educarers (RIE), both of which create a strong foundation for independent and creative lifelong learners. Here at Young School, we are proud pioneers of the "Cottage" learning environment. Our unique setting gives children a place where they are honored as individuals and valued as participating members of the community.
In everything we do, your child's safety remains our top priority. Guidance from state and local health authorities ensures a healthy, clean space. That's peace of mind for you as your child taps into the wonders of our dynamic, nurturing classrooms. You'll receive regular updates through our family communication app, so you don't miss a thing.

History
Report
Our dream of providing a higher quality of care and education for young children began in 1987. Founders Josh and Jo Ann Young opened their first location as YoungCare Child Development Center in Columbia, Maryland. Jo Ann's background in education and Josh's background in business operations created a solid foundation that is still going strong today.
