About

Child care centers on Harvard's Cambridge & Allston campuses provide services to the Harvard and local communities on the basis of availability and affiliation. For more information, please see the Harvard Childcare Web site.

 

This website is hosted by Harvard's Office of Work/Life Resources as a convenience for centers and families. Child care centers are independent from Harvard University, and make all enrollment decisions.
