I am Chelsea Keeton, the MCDC Registrar. Below is some information designed to provide you with information about enrolling in MCDC. If after reading a little about our center, you wish to enroll, please fill out the MCDC Membership Application Form located at the bottom of the page.
About MCDC:
MCDC is a parent-run, non-profit organization. Day-to-day operations are handled by the Director, Rhonda C. , Asst. Director, Melissa B. , and Admin. Assistant, Misty H. Other matters are handled by a Board of Directors that is staffed by MCDC parents. I am one of those parents and hold the position of Registrar.
General Info:
MCDC is accredited by the National Accreditation Commission https://www.earlylearningleaders.org/ and uses the Creative Curriculum published by Teaching Strategies. https://teachingstrategies.com/
Our normal operating hours are 7:00am-5:30pm Monday through Friday.
MCDC is on the USDA food program to ensure balanced meals for the children.
Breakfast, lunch and snacks are provided. Similac Advanced and baby rice cereal are also provided for infants. Parents must supply their own bottles, however.
MCDC offers a diaper program for $32 per month. We will provide diapers and wipes from the company Cuties which also produces Pampers diapers.
MCDC also offers some extra-curricular activities that parents can sign up for at an additional cost. Those include private piano lessons, Soccer Shots, Martial Arts, Spanish, Brain Builders, and The Big Green Bus.
