Day Care

The Miami Valley Family Care Center offers quality, educationally-based child care to children of all religions, ethnic backgrounds and income levels. Full-day programs are provided for children ages 2 1⁄2 to 5 years. Before- and after-school programs are available for youngsters ages 6 – 10.

The Center is open from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. Transportation is provided to and from many Dayton area schools. The Center is state licensed and exceeds government standards in many areas. The Center is located on the grounds of the Veterans Administration Center, corner of Kentucky and Ohio Streets.

Professional Staff
The Center’s staff is carefully selected for their educational backgrounds. This includes child care training, teaching experience, and sensitivity to the individual needs of young children. All teachers are trained in first aid, identifying communicable diseases, and recognizing child abuse and neglect.

The Miami Valley Family Care Center has licensed social workers on staff. Social workers help the families who need assistance dealing with personal problems that affect the family’s happiness and quality of life.

Parent Participation
A major factor in the Center’s success is our partnership with parents. We encourage all parents to become actively involved in their child’s learning experiences. Our Parent Association holds monthly meetings providing an opportunity to socialize and exchange parenting concerns and ideas. You are welcome to visit the Center at any time.

Fee Structure
We believe that quality child care should be affordable to every family. As a non-profit organization, the Center’s fees are based on a sliding fee scale. The monthly fees paid depend upon your family’s income or participation in the Montgomery County Title XX program.

Kindergarten and Pre-K Programs
The Center’s Kindergarten Program is certified through the Dayton Public Schools. Licensed teachers and a proven curriculum prepare kindergartners well for success in the first grade.

Summer Camp
The Center provides full-day care during the summer months. At MVFCC’s Summer Camp, your child will enjoy a variety of activities, crafts, projects, and field trips – all delivered with loving care and attention. In addition to the fun, school-age children receive some academic activities designed to prepare them for the school year ahead.
