Anew Dimension Child Enrichment Center is an early childhood education program that invites children to imagine with adults the endless possibilities of sharing and developing gifts and talents in a creative arts community.
Anew Dimension Child Enrichment Center has been helping children reach their full potential since 1969. We are a nonprofit, NAEYC accredited child enrichment program, serving economically and culturally diverse children and families in Minnesota. We provide unique and inclusive care in a nurturing atmosphere where all cultural perspectives are valued. Many of the children at Anew Dimension come from East African immigrant communities. Multiple different languages are spoken and celebrated. The diversity of the families we serve is reflected in our staff and board of directors. Our highly valued staff come from a variety of backgrounds and typically stay with the program for many years. The longevity of our staff retention is something we are proud of and a significant strength of our program.
Our curriculum is individualized, focusing on the development of each child with an emphasis on social and emotional development, school readiness and the arts. For over 50 years our organization has grown and developed with the changing needs of our community. We are committed to offering the highest quality care and education for children and strengthening families throughout the Twin Cities. We are proud to acknowledge our reputation as an organization with “a compelling mission and history of achievement”.
“Anew Dimension is more than a childcare center. To staff it is home, security, and a place to develop and grow. The staff care for each other just like we care for all the kids and families.”
-Ms. Kambia, Teacher at Anew
“You bring a heart to your work that is truly special and make the world a better place for it. You have been a source of love and comfort through moves, new jobs, new babies and even tragedy and heartbreak in our family. I hope you know how much your work, love and energy mean to us.”
-Allyson & Cory, Anew Parents
“I am so thankful about Anew Dimension. I cannot really express how much you guys as a team meant to me and my kids but let me say this; although you are not a mother, you care for them each day. You cuddle, sing, and read to them, and watch them as they play. You see each new accomplishment and help them grow and learn. You understand their language and listen with concern. They come to you for comfort and you kiss away their tears. They proudly show you their work, you give the loudest cheers. I know someday the time will come when we have to part, but I know Anew Dimension always in my heart forever. Thank you for that, as a mother with three beautiful kids I know I have chosen the right place for them when I see everyday how much you go above and beyond…”
-Seenaa, Anew Parent
“You are all wonderful and I thank you for helping my Alivia grow! She would not be who she is without your love, kindness, guidance, and care. Our family is so grateful for your hard work and dedication!”
-Alex, Anew parent
