Family Life
“The resources at Anderson and UCLA have made our MBA journey easier and made me feel empowered to attain my goals. The communities within Joint Ventures club and University Village have always welcomed and supported my family. My wife has also been able to further her education at UCLA Extension and our son is currently enrolled at the UCLA preschool. We have absolutely loved it here!”
— Shubhkarman Singh (’20)

You also may visit Los Angeles Unified School District for information on public schools in the area. Current Joint Ventures members also may be a good resource on specifics, so feel free to contact the club to be referred to another member with children.
Child Care
UCLA Early Care and Education (ECE) offers care for children two months to six years of age at three centers:
Krieger (Bellagio) Center
Located in the northwest corner of the UCLA campus, the Krieger Center is the biggest child care center on the campus
University Village Child Care Center & Kindergarten
Located in the University Village student housing complex. This service is available only to UCLA full-time students and UCLA paid staff and faculty. The center, through its Child Care Resources Program, also provides information on west-side child care providers and a small number of caregivers who will come to your home. In addition, the program will advise you how to evaluate a particular program or provider and what questions parents should ask to get the information they need.
