Lanza Learning Center

Lanza Learning Center (LLC) was established on a foundation of dreams and is perpetuated on the principle of endless possibilities. Founded in 1998 by Ann Abrowka, under the name New Little Branches, our Yonkers based center was established as an early childcare facility that would shape and change the lives of the children and families of Yonkers and beyond.

In 2011, after many years of funding her dream out of her personal savings, our founder exhausted her resources and was faced with the dilemma of having to give up on her dream. Believing that everything happens for a reason, Mrs. Ann made the acquaintance of known philanthropist Patricia Lanza who visited New Little Branches and immediately fell in love. Mrs. Lanza, who has dedicated her life to ensuring that those with limited resources become individuals of infinite possibilities, was immediately compelled to turn Mrs. Ann’s dream into a reality. In honor of Mrs. Ann’s vision and Mrs. Lanza’s generosity, the center was renamed New Little Branches presents Lanza Learning Center.

Since then, our students have worn the required yellow and blue uniforms with pride as they have excelled in an early childcare curriculum which emphasizes phonetics, writing, reading, phonics, science and discovery, music appreciation, art, physical education, library instruction and computer applications.

From our classroom to common areas, everything about Lanza Learning Center has been developed to build relationships with warm, caring teachers while learning in a safe and stimulating environment.
