Application

We are delighted that you have expressed an interest in WBR Early Learning. We understand that one of the most significant decisions you will make is which program to enroll your child in. Our goal is to give you the necessary resources and options you need to select the program that best matches your family.

It’s as simple as 1-2-3 to apply online for WBR Early Learning! Make sure you have all the documents you need to finish the application by taking the time to go over this page in its entirety before beginning the two part process.

Part 1 of the process involves completing an online pre-application, after which someone from your first option will contact you to gather the documentation for Part 2.  To make the application process as easy as possible, we have included both required and optional forms.

To begin the application process, complete the online application below. Please remember that completing the online application does not mean your child has been accepted into a WBR Early Childhood Program. A representative from your 1st choice will contact you with more information about the application process.

Please complete the application packet and collect the following documents in order for your child’s application to be complete.
