Who We Are

The Bessie Pregerson Child Development Center supports the Westwood Transitional Village, a residential housing program for homeless families in and around Los Angeles County. The Childcare Center is one of the many support services available to residents of The Village.

The Bessie Pregerson Child Development Center is a state licensed, year round, full day preschool program emphasizing state-of-the-art early childhood development practices and instruction. Special attention is paid to helping non-English speaking children to acquire new language skills. The Center provides day care facilities for 60 children aged 2.9 to 5 years old and residents of The Westwood Transitional Village do get priority enrollment. The majority of the children in attendance come from residents of The Village, however, preschoolers from the local community may also enroll, provided space is available.

The focus of the Center is to prepare the children for successful entry into kindergarten and ongoing achievement in later school years. Our childcare staff provides an excellent curriculum designed to meet the individual, physical, social, emotional, cognitive and linguistic needs of each child while enhancing self-esteem, life skills and the ability to recapture the joys of play.
