About this campus

An IGA campus is coming to New Palestine.

Our New Palestine campus will be new construction, serving Hancock County and the communities east of Indianapolis. Like every IGA building, it is designed as a childcare center from the start rather than converted from another use, with classrooms built around the age groups that will use them.

New Palestine sits along the US 52 and I-70 corridor, which makes it a practical stop for families commuting between Hancock County and Indianapolis, and puts us within reach of New Palestine, Greenfield, McCordsville, and Cumberland. Hours will match our other campuses: 6:30 AM to 6:00 PM, Monday through Friday.

We are not ready to publish a street address or an opening date for this campus yet. What we can tell you is what will not change: the full age range from six weeks through Pre-K, the same small class sizes, the same credentialing standards for lead teachers, and the same curriculum running at every IGA campus. Join the waitlist and we will reach out as soon as we have dates to share.
