HISTORY OF THE CENTER
In the late 1980s, the Sisters of Mercy saw a pressing need for single mothers to have safe, convenient, and high-quality childcare for their children. Without access to such care, struggling mothers could not move their lives forward. Dedicated to breaking the cycle of poverty and recognizing the need for children to have access to quality early education, the Child Care Learning Center became an integral component in the creation of McAuley Village.
About THE Center
McAuley Ministries is dedicated to offering high-quality education to the youngest members of our community. The McAuley Village Childcare is a licensed provider offering safety, enrichment and a values-based education for children within the Village and the surrounding neighborhoods.
In addition to our trained staff, the Childcare Center is also supported by volunteer efforts thar enable us to provide special programs and fun, enriching activities. Children will also benefit from an onsite playground to promote recreation. Each child is provided with a nutritious breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snack in order for them to fully focus on learning and meeting their developmental milestones. Our menu meets the standards set by USDA and is approved by the Department of Education’s Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP).
To ensure the safety of both children and staff, the Center has 24-hour security personnel and is equipped with cameras. State approved identification is required for all drop-offs and pick-ups of children.
