Child Development Center
Nothing’s more important than ensuring our children are cared for, loved, and safe. We’re proud to support working parents by providing childcare options.
Kristi, manager of legal services, shared her experience with the Child Development Center.
The Center offers classes from six weeks old through pre-K and summer camps. Both her children started at the Center as infants, and she loved having her kids on campus with her for many reasons, including that it streamlined the drop-off and pick-up process. “When I’d get the inevitable call that my child is sick, I could be with them in just a few minutes,” she explained.
Kristi found the tuition of the Child Development Center to be extremely reasonable compared to other childcare options in the Atlanta metro area, and she noted that the class sizes are small with great teacher-child ratios. “Tuition was taken out of my paycheck, and the Center was always accommodating with my schedule,” she said.
Though it was hard to hand over control to another caregiver when her children were babies, Kristi felt comforted that they were in loving hands, even during uncertain times. “When the pandemic hit, there were so many unknowns, and it was a difficult decision to keep my children in care outside the home. But it was absolutely the right choice for our family. I’m not sure how I would have gotten through working full-time during the pandemic without the Center,” she said. “My children loved going to the Center every day and made wonderful friends along the way.”
Kristi said the preschool prepared her son well for pre-K and kindergarten. “The STEM activities and phonics work they did prepared him for early reading!” The Center is also equipped with a great playground. Even though the Center is a lot of fun for kids, there are perks for the parents, too. Kristi said, “I made friends with some of the parents of my children’s classmates, and in some instances, I wound up working alongside them as colleagues.”
