About
The Center for Young Children (CYC) at Indiana University Indianapolis provides year-round daycare programs for children ages 6 weeks to 5 years in downtown Indianapolis. Located on campus, CYC offers childcare and early childhood education for both the University and the broader Indianapolis communities.
We believe that children learn best through play, hands-on activities, and interaction with their environment. Research supports that children are naturally curious and eager to explore the world around them. At CYC, we create a setting where children can wonder, solve problems, learn, and grow. Our experienced and professional teachers guide and encourage each child, amplifying their potential.
Our curriculum is designed to promote independence, self-esteem, confidence, and critical thinking skills, laying the foundation for continued intellectual and academic growth. Since our founding in 1979, our mission has been to provide exceptional care and early childhood education to the IU Indianapolis and Indianapolis communities. While we have evolved over the years, our commitment to this mission remains steadfast.
We offer year round programs for children ages 6 weeks - 5 years. In addition, we are licensed to accept CCDF and On-My-Way Pre-K program vouchers.
