The Child Development Program provides full-time and drop-in care. The CDC is a full-time care facility and comprises the majority of care provided and it includes breakfast, lunch and an afternoon snack. The fee structure for full-time care is based on total family income as regulated by Department of War instructions. Hourly or drop-in care is limited due to space availability. Reservations are required and can be made up to 30 days in advance. Hourly care is available for ages 6 weeks - 5 years based on availability. Priority for full-time care is given to single and dual military families.
