Who we are

The Waterford School District Child Care Services prides itself in providing a quality educational based child care program in all of their 12 elementary schools. Before and After school care is offered each school day at all sites. We also provide child care on half days, school breaks and inclement weather days. In addition, full day care (6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.) is offered at The Stepanski Early Childhood Center.

In addition to our school year programs we offer an activity packed summer program with age appropriate activities.

Waterford also has a  Infant/Toddler Program offering care for ages 2 1/2 weeks to three years of age. Our Dandi Lions Infant/Toddler Program is open to the public.
