Pathways for Children

About Pathways for Children

Since 1967, Pathways for Children has been committed to providing high quality programs for children and families on Cape Ann and beyond. Our journey began with the founding of our Head Start preschool classrooms, and since then we have continued to grow and evolve in order to meet the changing needs of the communities we serve. We strive to create an environment that nurtures children and supports families affected by economic and social inequity. Our range of services, including education, enrichment, empowerment and motivation, provides the resources and opportunities necessary to help children and families thrive.

Early Head Start Program Ages birth–3

Through our Early Head Start program, students ages six weeks to three years can prepare for a brighter world ahead. Small classes, coupled with a bright and comfortable environment allow children to explore and take an active role in their own social, emotional, cognitive, and physical growth. Our Gloucester center also includes an age-appropriate outdoor playground and indoor play space for our children to run and play. Each child is an important member of a specific and unique family. Our staff is uniquely trained to support the development of each child’s home language and culture during these critical, early years.

Head Start Program Ages 3-5

The nationally recognized Head Start program gives children ages 3-5 an extra boost heading into kindergarten. Our preschool program allows caregivers peace of mind knowing that their child is learning and growing in a safe and healthy environment. While their children are getting the support they need to enter kindergarten prepared academically, socially, and physically. Like all of our comprehensive, all-inclusive educational programming, Head Start offers meals, nutrition assessment, health and developmental screenings, referrals for special education services, family support, enrichment programs, and field trips.
