Mile High Early Learning provides high quality comprehensive child development services to eligible children and their families. Through Head Start and Early Head Start, Mile High Early Learning helps prepare children intellectually, socially, emotionally, and physically for school and life.

Mile High Early Learning has been a Head Start delegate through Denver Great Kids Head Start for over 20 years. In 2021, Mile High Early Learning became a Head Start grantee to expand its successful Head Start program to serve more young children. Mile High Early Learning is an Early Head Start/Child Care Partnership grantee and provides Early Head Start programming at its centers and partner sites. In addition to a quality early care and education program, health, nutrition, mental health and intervention services are provided for children ages birth to 5 years that include complete physical examination and follow-up, complete dental examination and necessary treatment, hearing and vision screening, developmental skills screening and an individualized educational program and daily nutritious meals. Our staff partner closely with families to set goals and identify available community resources.
