The organization also operates a non-profit, licensed, educational childcare center called growing generations childcare. Growing generations provides curriculum based childcare services by planning each day to promote early childhood learning and development activities such as music, literacy, math, science, creative play. Daily planning also includes structured and unstructured physical activities that encourage positive social and emotional growth and development. Growing generations cares for children ages six weeks to 12 years and is located in the plymouth intergenerational center. Growing generations classrooms participate in intergenerational activities and programming with other nonprofit organizations in the building. Future plans are for growing generations and early head start to collaborate together to offer center-based services at st. Andrew preschool and development center in sheboygan.

The organization, through sheboygan county head start, also collaborates with two local school districts to provide pre-kindergarten (4k) education classes. The 4k community approach benefits include: fewer transitions for children, increased continuity of care, and increases the ability to provide inclusive settings for 4k children with special needs. For head start classrooms, this collaboration offers extended day educational services to 90 head start children and families each year.

The program is administered through wisconsin department of instruction for usda. Our menus are on a 7 week cycle of rotation and have been reviewed by a registered dietitian.
