History

Bellevue Day Care Center, Inc. is a non-profit organization that was founded in 1971 by members of the Auxiliaries of Bellevue Hospital Center. Its purpose was to provide early education and child care services to employees of the hospital and the surrounding community.

Over the years, Bellevue Day Care Center, Inc. has sponsored a variety of programs in an effort to meet the evolving needs of our families. Past programs sponsored by Bellevue Day Care Center, Inc. were Educare Early Childhood Center – Preschool and School Age programs and volunteer programs for Center alumni.

In 2006, Bellevue Day Care Center, Inc. returned “home” within Bellevue Hospital Center and offers early education and child care services for children 6 months to 4 years old.

The growth of the organization, as we reach our 50th year, has marked Bellevue Day Care Center, Inc. as a leader in New York City. The vision of the Board extends into the future, as we continue to plan to meet the needs of families with young children.

Bellevue Day Care Center Inc. is a tax exempt organization as described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code
