The UNM Early Childhood Services Center (ECSC) collaborates with community agencies who provide direct services to children and families to establish Paloma’s Play Corners.  These play areas ensure children have access to high quality early childhood educational materials while they may be waiting to receive various onsite services within our community.  UNM ECSC creates these spaces FREE of charge in collaboration with organizations and they are a wonderful addition to create a family friendly welcoming environment.

Here you can find some picture of some of the Paloma’s Play Corners we have done in the past to give you an idea of what we can do with certain spaces. Also, check out our video of a Paloma’s Play Corner that we created at our organization. We can always work with your entity to find the right space and materials that will work great for children and families that you serve. We strive to provide a very individualized experience that meets your needs. We are happy to schedule either a phone call, zoom, or in person meeting to talk more and answer any of your questions. Feel free to fill out the intake form and someone from our team will reach out to you as well as add you to our waiting list.

 “Dear Joel, thank you again so very much to you and Paloma for all the amazing work you two did this past Friday in restoring our playroom. We have already had 4 different families come in since and were so amazed at how great the playroom looked, the children have enjoyed all the new toys and this room has brought life back into the office! Thank you again so much”
