Information on programs' NAEYC Accreditation status:
The list of NAEYC Accredited programs is updated with new accreditation decisions on the fifth (5th) day of every month.
Throughout a program's five (5) year NAEYC Accreditation term, certain events and circumstances related to the program may change its NAEYC Accreditation status. Before a program's NAEYC Accreditation status is changed, the NAEYC Academy strives to conduct a fair and impartial review of all supporting materials. To accommodate the length of time needed for the review, changes (if applicable) to a program’s NAEYC Accreditation status are posted to the website within three (3) months.
For these reasons, we encourage families to verify a program's accreditation through the NAEYC Academy's Accredited Program Search.
Programs are encouraged to read additional information on this topic, which may be found in the Maintaining Accreditation section of the NAEYC Academy website.
Please choose ONE of the search options to find NAEYC Accredited programs near you.
Search by CITY and STATE or Search by ZIP CODE
Notes:
Multi-site programs: NAEYC Accreditation is granted to the overall program (and not the individual sites). Therefore, only the program name would appear in some of search functions. If you're looking for a multi-site program, please use search by CITY or ZIP CODE.
You may have noticed we recently changed our Accredited Program Search. We are in the process of improving our search to better serve you. If you are a program and have questions about your information you may call 1-800-424-2460 or email qualityassurance@naeyc.org.
