Better Beginnings is a provider of human services, having evolved during its 31 years of existence from providing a nursery school experience for a few economically disadvantaged children, to the provision of affordable quality child care for many, to the provision of such other services as feasible to meet the emerging needs of the families and children in the communities it serves.  Better Beginnings seeks to serve all people in need of its services regardless of religious affiliation, race, sex, age, creed, color, national origin, ancestry, handicap, sexual orientation, or marital status, and encourages self-esteem, mutual respect and harmonious relationships among all the diverse elements of the human community.

In the provision of services, Better Beginnings is committed first and foremost to providing affordable, quality child care, giving parents the opportunity to be self-supporting, contributing and involved members of the community while providing their children with developmentally-appropriate learning experiences in a safe, healthy, nurturing environment.  Better Beginnings is further committed to be as responsive as possible to the unmet needs of the families and children of its community, providing programs wherever feasible to meet such needs.

In the process of responding to the ever-changing needs and problems of its families and children, Better Beginnings has evolved from a narrowly-focused program to a multi-service agency, while carefully maintaining the excellence and innovation for which the agency is noted.
