About Us

Tri-Con Child Care Center was established in 1971 when United Way assessed the need for additional subsidized early care and education programs in Highwood and Highland Park.  Trinity Episcopal Church in Highland Park, the National Council of Jewish Women, and Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Highland Park came together to create Tri-Con Child Care.

​

With continued support from many local organizations, businesses and individuals, Tri-Con has been providing high quality early care and education for over 48 years.

​

We are a not-for-profit agency licensed by the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services and the Lake County Health Department.

​

100% of attending students receive financial assistance.

Mission

Since its founding over  48 years ago, Tri-Con's mission has been to provide high quality, affordable early care and education for children of low-to-moderate income families.  Our mission extends to and includes the families of our students where we act as a community liaison when support is needed from other social service agencies and professionals.

Winter Outdoor Fun!

Once a bit of winter snow arrived we grabbed our cold weather gear, a few sleds & shovels and headed outdoors.  We rolled snow, shoveled snow & slid on snow.  Some of us worked together to build our first snowman of the season!

Keeping  Ourselves Busy Indoors!

​

When winter weather keeps us indoors, our classroom is full of fun.

We're busy painting at the easel, building with the blocks, counting with numbers, reading lots of books, dressing up and having fun with our friends!
