We’re expanding! Village Church Kids Day Out (KDO) program is expanding to two days a week for 18-month* to 3-year-olds (*18 months by Sept. 1, 2023).
Our goal is to provide a safe, loving atmosphere where your child can thrive and learn. 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 will provide your child with many opportunities to explore and be creative. 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 our Kids Day Out family.
