Enrollment Information
Prairie Pines Childcare Center welcomes children ages 6 weeks to 12 years, depending on current program availability. We offer both full-time care (4–5 days per week) and drop-in care (as available).
A non-refundable $100 enrollment fee is required to secure a spot. Before your child’s first day (fultime or drop-in care), we’ll schedule a welcome meeting to get to know your family, share the daily routine, and complete any final paperwork.
