Mile High Early Learning
Mile High Early Learning (MHEL) is the largest and oldest provider of subsidized quality early care and education in Denver. Our mission is to enable all children in Denver to succeed in school by providing resources and education to inspire a lifetime of learning and self-sufficiency. Using a Montessori inspired approach, MHEL helps the children it serves by fostering in them social competency, a habit of concentration, initiative and persistence, pride in the physical environment and a life-long joy of learning—all qualities which engender school success and responsible and engaged citizens. Our early learning centers across Denver serve more than 500 children each day. We also operate two drop-in centers in partnership with Denver Human Services and Denver Courts to provide a safe and healthy setting for their clients’ children. At our Northeast Learning Center, we have community education and outreach programs for Family, Friend and Neighbor care providers as well as parents. Programs such as Babies Ready for College and Play and Learn Groups are focused on supporting children’s growth and development by working with parents and caregivers. We remain deeply committed to ensuring that all children have access to quality early care and education. I welcome you to join us to make a difference in children’s lives.
