Military Child Care program

We are proud to support our military families

Attention Military Families:

At Kiddie Academy, we are proud to support our military families through the Military Child Care in Your Neighborhood (MCCYN) program. We understand that military families face unique challenges, including distance from military-operated child care facilities and waitlists. That's why we're here to offer you a helping hand.

What is MCCYN?

Military Child Care in Your Neighborhood (MCCYN) is a valuable Department of Defense (DoD) and U.S. Coast Guard fee assistance program designed specifically for eligible military families like yours. This program is intended to bridge the gap for families who cannot access military-operated child care services due to distance or waitlists.

How Does It Work?

With MCCYN fee assistance, a portion of your child care costs is covered to offset the expenses of community-based care. This means that you can now more easily afford high-quality child care services right here in your local community. At Kiddie Academy, we are committed to providing exceptional child care and early learning opportunities, and with MCCYN, we make it even more accessible for military families.

We invite you to explore the benefits of enrolling your child in our Kiddie Academy program, where they will receive the best in early childhood education and care.

To learn more about the Military Child Care in Your Neighborhood (MCCYN) program and how you can take advantage of this enrollment incentive, please visit our website at https://public.militarychildcare.csd.disa.mil/mcc-central/mcchome or contact us directly. We're here to answer any questions you may have and to assist you in providing your child with the quality care they deserve.

 

 

Thank you for your service, and we look forward to serving your family!
