Student E-Mail
All registered students receive an LMU e-mail account.
LMU student e-mail addresses follow the convention:

LMU student e-mail is accessible via any web browser.
Visit the LMU website at http://www.lmu.edu. Click the

The LION e-mail account is used for official University

Loyola Marymount University
Children’s Center
Director: Anita Velasquez
The Loyola Marymount University Children’s Center was
established to address the child care needs of the
University community. The LMUCC is an on-site,
employer-sponsored organization dedicated to quality
care for children of all those who make up the LMU and
greater Westchester communities. Care is made available
for children of the faculty, staff, and students, with a
limited number of spaces available to alumni, qualified
on-campus employees of University service contractors,
and neighborhood residents. In keeping with the Jesuit
and Marymount traditions, we strive to meet the needs of
the community of which we are a part by incorporating
diversity into a values-centered curriculum.
The Center’s early childhood professionals are committed
to educating the whole child—socially, emotionally,
physically, and intellectually—to set the stage for life-long
learning. Based on developmentally appropriate practice,
the curriculum focuses on play, creativity, and hands-on
discovery learning for children 6 weeks to 11 years of age.
Our intention is to be a model of quality Early Childhood
Education programs for the communities we serve.
The LMUCC is open year-round, providing full- and parttime
enrollment for infants through preschoolers. Our
School-Age program provides after-school care for K-5th
grades and a full-day Summer Camp.
