Welcome!
Upward Bound is a place
…where children are valued for their sense of wonder, genuine curiosity, need to explore, natural desire to learn, and their abundant ability to love and embrace life.
…where staff are valued for their ability to work together for the benefit of the children, their commitment to continual program evaluation and improvement, their energy and enthusiasm, and for their ability to build relationships.
…where families are valued for the support they provide children, the partnerships they build with our staff, their eagerness to help, and for their willingness to entrust their children in our care.
…where all are valued for their unique abilities and ideas, love of laughter, the respect they give one another, and for their capacity to trust, lean on and learn from another.
Our Goals are to
…establish and maintain a safe healthy environment for the children, partnerships with parents, and links to community resources.
…weave into the program a sense of respect for others, opportunities to express kindness and cooperation, and a respect for nature and the arts.
…encourage children to explore, manipulate, think critically, solve problems, gain confidence, and build friendships.
…support children’s need for creative expression, increased independence, closeness, warmth and compassion.
…extend children’s knowledge through books, fieldtrips, meaningful conversations and discussions, and a variety of activities and experiences

Our Mission
The mission of the Upward Bound Child Care Center located in the Village of Palmyra, NY is to form a partnership with families and provide loving, nurturing care for their children ages 6 weeks through twelve years, in an environment that is safe, where they will grow, develop, explore, learn, and flourish.
We recognize that each child has unique talents, learning styles and personalities. Our highly-qualified teachers and staff are committed to working within each child's comfort zone to ensure optimal social, emotional and educational results.
Classes are kept to a low student-teacher ratio and often fill up quickly.
