NAEYC Accreditation is awarded for five years. In that time period, programs submit annual reports documenting that they maintain compliance with the NAEYC program standards. All NAEYC-Accredited programs are also subject to unannounced visits by skilled and reliable NAEYC program assessors to ensure that they continue to meet the standards. To verify a program's accreditation, please visit www.naeyc.org

What is NAEYC Accreditation?

Early childhood programs accredited by the NAEYC Accreditation have voluntarily undergone a comprehensive process of internal self-study and improvement. Each NAEYC-Accredited program must meet all 10 of the NAEYC Early Childhood Program Standards. NAEYC is the mark of quality for our accredited programs.
