**New!** Drop-in Care Option

We are excited to introduce a flexible drop-in care option for families who need occasional childcare throughout the summer.  Drop-in care uses the same registration process as our regular program, and any standard fees will apply.

How Drop-in Care Works

  • Once your registration is confirmed and any required fees have been paid, families may request a drop-in day with at least 2 weeks’ advance notice.

  • Approval is based on staffing levels and available space for the requested day.

  • Rate: $50 per child, per day ( included all ages) billed through your regular account.

  • This option is ideal for families who do not need weekly care but appreciate the flexibility to attend as needed during the summer.
