BlueSkies is committed to providing a high-quality support system to children and their families, ensuring the health of today’s working families and society. BlueSkies, a private, nonprofit 501(c)3 program founded in 1983, is the only NAEYC-accredited childcare center in Oakland.

We are one of the most multicultural and diverse full-time childcare centers in the Bay Area and a model of excellence for teachers studying early childhood education.
We serve about 85 children from 2 months to 5 years of age in six classrooms, from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. daily. Our Children’s Programs are intentionally inclusive of all families. BlueSkies for Children provides a unique, high-quality program that serves both working parents and supports the growth of children through play.
