New Hampshire Association for the Education of Young Children (NHAEYC) is an affiliate of NAEYC, which is the premier membership association for early learning professionals. NAEYC is a professional membership organization that works to promote high-quality early learning for all young children, birth through age 8, by connecting early childhood practice, policy, and research. We advance a diverse, dynamic early childhood profession and support all who care for, educate, and work on behalf of young children. The association comprises nearly 70,000 individual members of the early childhood community and more than 300 regional Affiliate chapters, all committed to delivering on the promise of high-quality early learning. Together, we work to achieve a collective vision: that all young children thrive and learn in a society dedicated to ensuring they reach their full potential. 

NAEYC is a professional association with membership for the individual, not organizations.

Accreditation is a voluntary process that some schools undergo in order to prove that they meet certain academic, social, and quality standards.

NAEYC Accreditation began in 1985 and now there are over 6,500 programs!  NAEYC accredited programs invest in early childhood education because they believe in the benefits to children and families.
