PDO Overview
Parents Day Out is a child care program for 2-3 year olds* that runs during the school year on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 a.m.-2:30 p.m. If your family doesn’t need full-time child care, but you’d love to give your child the opportunity to grow, play and socialize, Parents Day Out is the perfect option.
Our faith-based program is designed to enhance your child’s social, spiritual and emotional development while in a safe, relaxed setting. Your child will have fun while learning to interact with their peers and follow basic directions. We have a loving, energetic staff that will make your child’s experience a positive one. We look forward to your child becoming a part of the Parents Day Out family.
*Children must be two years old by Sept. 1 to participate in PDO.
