MDO operates on the St. Joseph School District schedule, therefore, if school is not in session for them, then neither are we. In addition, if they are closed an entire day because of snow then we will also be closed. Please be advised that you will not hear MDO as a separate listing on the television or radio. If the district is released early because of inclement weather, we will remain open through regular operating hours. (We do not want you to rush to pick up everyone at once.

We do not provide lunch during Mother's Day Out so we ask you pack a lunch, drink included, for your child. We also do not have refrigerators available (except in the nursery) so ice packs or non-refrigerated food items are good ideas. We also ask that you bring an extra change of clothes even in your child is potty trained. Accidents do happen occasionally. 

We have a set nap time for the children. Although we have plastic rest mats for them, we have found that children rest much better if they have a sleeping bag, bed roll, or favorite blanket that they may lay on as well.

We are staffed with loving caregivers that not only care for the children, but teach them how to treat each other with love and respect. Many of them are veterans in the program having been with us for over 10 years.

We have annual fire and safety inspections and are also subject to yearly inspections by the Bureau of Child Care. MDO is equipped with both smoke and carbon monoxide detection systems. In addition, we practice monthly tornado and fire drills.

For the safety of your children, all of our employees have undergone background checks and are all physically capable for the children.
