Child Development Centers offers high-quality childcare and early childhood education programs for children from 6 weeks through elementary school. Our centers provide safe, nurturing environments where children can learn, grow and build confidence every day.

We offer seasonal camps, infant and toddler care, plus subsidized and free preschool programs through Head Start and Pre-K Counts for eligible families. Our programs support kindergarten readiness through hands-on learning, experienced teachers and engaging classrooms.

Families across Erie, Crawford and Venango counties trust CDC for reliable childcare, nutritious meals and supportive learning environments. In addition to our 13 early learning centers, we provide before- and after-care through the Erie Catholic School System and Millcreek Township School District, assisting in making quality extended care available for school-age families.
