Our Littlest Learners Come Home

A Program That Grows With Your Family

At Martha’s Table, we believe every child deserves a strong start and a community that walks with them every step of the way. Our accredited Early Childhood Education program provides a nurturing, play-based, and academically enriching environment for children ages 6 weeks to 4 years. Families receive support through high-quality learning, fresh and healthy meals prepared on-site, no-cost shopping at Martha’s Outfitters and More, monthly family engagement events, and access to our full range of wraparound services.

With experienced educators, a comprehensive curriculum, a warm and welcoming environment, and strong family partnerships, our Early Childhood Education program offers more than just a classroom. It is a community where children and families can grow and thrive together.

But what truly sets our program apart is the lasting connection between families and our team.

“Some of these kids were just two years old when I had them in class,” shared Cara Wilner, a longtime educator and family engagement expert. “Now they’re going into third grade, and they still remember us. They run up and give hugs, say they love Martha’s Table. It reminds me why this work matters so much.”

The ECE Alumni Mixer is a joyful celebration of the lasting bonds formed during families’ earliest years with Martha’s Table and a warm reminder that this will always be a place they can call home. It’s incredibly special to witness how much the children have grown and to reconnect with families who continue to hold this community close to their hearts. Some parents have even shared how much they miss being part of Martha’s Table, wishing the experience could carry through to high school.

For families, this year’s gathering is all about fun, connection, and celebration. It’s a chance to come together over a delicious community dinner to learn about new programming and enjoy kid-approved treats and activities that spark big smiles and laughter. 

Alumni will receive backpacks and school supplies to help ensure they start the school year with confidence. From new notebooks to fresh markers, these tools help young learners feel ready, encouraged, and excited for the year ahead
