Communities United, Inc. is a Head Start funded non-profit who serves a diverse group of children, ages 4 months to 5 years. We aim to ensure the success of the child, empower the family, and strengthen the community through providing high quality education and family services to those in need. We operate from four different Creative Start Childcare Centers: Lexington Creative Start, Newton-Watertown Creative Start, Waltham Creative Start, and Woburn Creative Start.
While CUI serves children from the full socio-economic spectrum, our focus is on identifying the most at-risk families and ensuring that their needs are met. The majority of the children that CUI serves are living at or below the federal poverty level, and receive free assistance. We provide comprehensive services in education, social services, health, and parenting, in hopes of empowering members of our communities.
Lexington Creative Start serves children ages 2 to 5 years. Our center is located at 55 Coolidge Ave in the Pilgrim Congregational Church. Our program offers free and nutritious meals, specialized curriculum to support social and emotional development, enhanced language and literacy support, daily music and movement activities, and support services for families.

Our families are a vital part of the community, providing a foundation of learning throughout a child’s first years of life. We see parents as lifelong teachers and advocates, and integrate learning at home through positive parent-teacher partnerships. We host monthly family engagement activities to encourage involvement in our classrooms. Parents are offered educational workshops, referrals to additional community resources, and opportunities for involvement in their child’s education.
