In March 2006, Mothers’ Club became the proud owner of a new, permanent facility located in the heart of Northwest Pasadena: 980 N. Fair Oaks Avenue. The Mothers’ Club Board of Directors, along with the expertise of the staff and other professionals in education, planning and design, set out to create a facility that will support the expansion of programs for families in Pasadena. The new site, which opened in October 2007, includes:

• Infant & Toddler Center
• Preschool Center
• Children’s Outdoor Learning Center
• Parent Education Center
• Administrative Offices

GOALS for the new facility include:

• Attaining Licensing through California Community Care Licensing Division for child development centers.
• Attaining Accreditation through the National Association for the Education of Young Children.
• Attaining LEED Certification at the Gold Level from the U.S. Green Building Council as part of the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Green Building Rating System, a national standard for developing high-performance, sustainable buildings.

Designing a GREEN Building is in line with many of Mothers’ Club core values:

• A GREEN building provides a nontoxic, safe, and natural environment for children, parents and staff.
• A GREEN building models environmental responsibility for other organizations, the families we serve, and our community as a whole.
• A GREEN building models thoughtful and forward thinking leadership around the environmental well-being of our community and world, and the on-going operations of our organization.
