The Burke Foundation Early Childhood Center at the YWCA Princeton, located in downtown Princeton, is dedicated to early childhood education for children eight weeks to six years old. Our center offers bilingual classrooms and is licensed by State of New Jersey Department of Children and Families. The center is open year round Monday through Friday, from 7:30 am - 6:00 pm. Full and partial day childcare is available, and we are proud to offer aftercare from 3:30 - 6:00 pm for children ages 3 - 6 years old. Financial assistance is available for qualified families.
Opening March 2026, Marigold Academy is a new early education center in Princeton where children are valued, supported, and encouraged to be their best selves. We provide full-day services from 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, designed to meet the needs of busy families while giving children a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment to learn and grow.
We offer programs for all stages of early childhood: Infants (6 weeks – 12 months), Toddlers (12 months – 30 months), Preschool (2 ½ – 4 years), and Pre-Kindergarten (4+), including a summer camp program. Families are at the heart of what we do. We partner closely with parents and caregivers to ensure every child feels safe, supported, and ready to thrive. At Marigold Academy, we are proud to be part of the Princeton community and can't wait to welcome your family!
