Pathways for Children is the leading provider of programs for children on Cape Ann, located in Gloucester, Massachusetts.  Pathways offers high quality care provided by well-trained, dedicated professionals who understand the needs of the developing child. It is care that helps a child feel safe and excited about living each day, that acknowledges the strength of each family, and that is able to provide help when needed.

We now know that quality care and education in the first years can impact the life course of a child. A developing brain is nourished by love, age-appropriate learning, limit-setting, nutrition, and early literacy experiences. When these elements are absent, there can be lifelong consequences. A skilled teacher in a quality program nurtures a child’s strengths and recognizes areas of concern, helping both the child and the family receive the support they need.
