The Nathaniel Jones Early Learning Center (NJELC) is committed to cultivating a love for learning through a high-quality preschool program that focuses on early academic achievement and whole-child development. Starting at age three, children engage in hands-on, developmentally appropriate learning experiences that build a strong foundation for kindergarten readiness and future success.

Guided by experienced, highly qualified educators, our preschool upholds high academic standards in a nurturing, safe environment where every child is encouraged to grow, explore, and thrive.

As a Level 3 provider on Indiana’s Paths to QUALITY rating system, NJELC is recognized for excellence in health and safety practices, curriculum planning, and school readiness. We equip students with the essential skills, confidence, and kindergarten readiness needed for long-term academic achievement.

NJELC proudly supports families by offering information and assistance with early childhood funding options, including CCDF (Child Care Development Fund) and On My Way Pre-K. These programs help make high-quality early learning more accessible. Spots are limited, so early enrollment is encouraged.

Give your child a strong start at NJELC—where learning begins, and possibilities are endless.
