Pathways LA

We believe that all children share a future full of endless possibilities. Driven by data and innova

Pathways was founded in 1978 by educator and activist Bea Gold as an organization committed to assuring access to evidence-based and best practices in early childhood services for children of all abilities and incomes. Over the years, Pathways’ programs and services have expanded to meet the growing needs of vulnerable children and families, and today is a recognized leader in early care and educa

tion resources for families in its service area – SPA 4 (Service Planning Area 4) in metro LA - administering over $17 million a year in public and private funds that reach over 15,000 children, parents, and caregivers every year. Pathways is the single largest nonprofit resource for child care and early education services for low income working families with young children in greater metropolitan Los Angeles, with three locations in Koreatown, Eagle Rock, and West Hollywood. Pathways’ programs help families find and pay for high quality child care and preschool services, train and support community providers in best practices, and engage parents to support children’s early learning. Pathways believes that strong families play a key role in children’s early development, and investments in early care and education programs prepare children for success in school and beyond. Accessible and affordable high quality child care is not only critical for children’s development, but is also fundamental to families’ self-sufficiency and the region’s economic recovery.

Did you know that the first five years of a child’s life are a critical time for brain development? Everyday experiences—like talking, reading, playing, exploring, and building relationships with caring adults—help children develop the skills they need to learn and thrive.

At our West Hollywood Preschool, our team creates nurturing early learning environments where children can learn through play, build confidence, develop social-emotional skills, and grow at their own pace.

If you are a parent living or working in the City of West Hollywood, our West Hollywood Preschool is children ages 2.5 to 5 years old.

to this year’s 2026 Back to School event!

We were proud to welcome more than 700 attendees as families came together to prepare for a successful school year. Throughout the event, we distributed backpacks filled with school supplies, fresh produce, clothing, snacks, and other essential resources to help support local families.

Events like these are about more than preparing children for the first day of school—they’re about bringing our community together, supporting families, and creating opportunities for children to start the school year feeling confident, prepared, and encouraged.

We’re grateful to everyone who joined us, contributed, volunteered, and helped spread the word. Thank you for being part of our Back to School celebration!
