Child Development Center

The Child Development Center at the main campus is an affordable childcare option (ages 3 to 5) and (ages 6 months to 23 months) for eligible SCC students and Los Rios employees. There are also limited openings for families and community members who would pay full/partial cost.

It is a hands-on learning environment for SCC students enrolled in Child Development and Early Childhood Education courses.

Meals

Childcare includes meals for the full-day and the part-day programs at the center.

At enrollment parents will be asked to complete a "Food Program Eligibility" form. The center serves breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dinner. All meals meet the requirements of the Food Program.
