Clayton Early Learning- Educare School

Clayton’s 20-acre campus in the heart of Denver is the home of Colorado’s only Educare school, a nationally recognized model supporting children from birth to age five and their families. We also impact systems change in Colorado and beyond through our research and evaluation services, professional development for teachers and leaders throughout Colorado, and policy and advocacy work at the state and federal level. Our direct service and systems change work has impacted 20,000 children throughout Colorado.

We, Clayton Early Learning, are a school that fosters thriving, equitable communities by partnering with families to nurture a whole child, whole family approach to the early years, discover what works, and advance systems change.

You, a teacher at Clayton Early Learning, are a positive, passionate, dedicated educator who enjoys working with young children in a high-quality learning environment where every child is treated as an individual.

Together, we will work to facilitate an environment that is committed fiercely to the belief that healthy early childhood development offers one of the most powerful levers for ending inequality. Together, we will continue to play a leadership role in demonstrating what is possible in the early years and the positive impact that has for children and families over time.
