OUR MISSION & HISTORY

Nurtury gives Greater Boston’s youngest children in need, birth to age five, the

opportunity to reach their full potential by investing in school readiness, promoting

healthy development, and strengthening families.

When our first program opened in 1878, Nurtury became New England’s first early

education and care agency. Since then, Nurtury has transformed child care to include

high-quality educational programming and family support resources. We also

embrace a leadership role in the early education field in Boston, convening other

family-support organizations, and advocating for the early education workforce at the

state level.

Through our center-based programs and family child care system, we have touched

generations of children and their families. Every year we care for, and educate 1,200

of Greater Boston’s youngest and most vulnerable children at six early learning

centers and 130 family child care sites.

Established in 1882 and later moved to it’s

current location, Mt. Pleasant Street became

the child care component of the Project Family

Independence in Roxbury, a collaborative

housing project designed to provide

permanent, low-income housing to single

parents. We serve infants, toddlers, and

preschoolers, ages 2 months to 6 year old.
