Ready, Set, Grow! Why Head Start Is the Ultimate Launchpad for Little Learners

Let’s face it, raising little ones is no joke. From spilled snacks to endless “why?” questions, it’s a full-time adventure. But here’s the good news, you don’t have to do it alone. And when it comes to giving your child the best possible start in life, Head Start and Early Head Start programs are here to help.

So, what’s the big deal about Head Start?

Well, imagine a place where your child can grow, explore, and learn in a safe, supportive, and seriously fun environment. Now add expert educators, healthy meals, developmental screenings, family support, and a whole lot of heart, and you’ve got Head Start.

Our program is built for kids from birth to age 5, and it’s especially designed to support families who need it most. Whether your little one is just starting to babble or getting ready to conquer kindergarten, we’re focused on helping them thrive academically, socially, emotionally, and physically.

And the best part? It’s not just for kids.

Head Start lifts up families too

We offer resources, parent support, and leadership opportunities that help you feel confident, informed, and connected. You’ll be part of a team that truly sees your child and sees you.

It’s not just preschool. It’s a foundation for life.

Enrollment is officially open!
If you have (or know!) a tiny human under 5, now’s the time to sign up, ask questions, or take a peek inside a day at Head Start.

Let’s give Arizona’s youngest learners the strong start they deserve and have a little fun while we’re at it.
