  • Centro Infantil de los Ángeles is a nonprofit organization that provides free, quality daycare and preschool education to children with the greatest need in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Our center affords working parents the comfort of knowing their children are fed, nurtured and can learn in a safe, caring environment as they work to make a better life for themselves and the community as a whole.

    The organization was formed through the merger of Casa de los Angeles daycare and Centro Infantil San Pablo preschool. Centro Infantil de los Angeles serves over 180 children ages 1 month-6 years old.

    In addition to preparing the children for the first grade in the Mexican public school system, we offer the following enrichment programs:

     * Hot, nutritionally balanced meals are prepared in the kitchen on the premises and served every school day.

    * Introduction to English – a volunteer program to introduce the four and five year olds to the English language using simple commands and greetings, colors, animals and basic shapes and numbers.

    * Computer classes are also offered by volunteers.

    * Children receive regular medical, dental and eye exams and medications as needed. Physical and learning difficulties are identified early, allowing for successful treatment programs.

    * Volunteers provide art and swimming classes, yoga, reading, story-telling and mentoring.

    * During the school year there are field trips to acquaint the students with their community. Many of the children live with a single mother or grandmother and rarely or never leave their neighborhood.

    Parents are encouraged to become involved in their children’s education and they receive health and nutrition talks and English classes. Parents’ Story Telling once a month is a popular activity.

    Centro Infantil de los Angeles depends on the generosity of its donors, child sponsors, and volunteers. Welcoming local and international guests of all ages, the volunteer program works to support the center by provided much needed assistance to the limited staff.

    “Serving the poor is not about pity.  It is more about passion.  The risk of pity is that it kills with kindness; the promise of passion is that it builds on the hope that the poor are fully capable of helping themselves if given the chance.”   NancyGibbs
