Child Development Centers serve:

  • All active-duty personnel
  • Reservists and Guard members on active orders
  • DoW civilians and contractors

 

Families must register through Parent Central Services, either online or in person.

Priority placement follows Army CYS guidelines, ensuring mission-essential families have access first.

You’ll need to provide your child’s health forms, immunization records, and emergency contacts during registration.

If a center is full, families can join the CYS waitlist and will be contacted as openings become available.
