Because the Child Study Center is a teaching and learning lab, parents who enroll their children in the childcare program will be required to enroll in a parent education seminar (CHDEV 12) for two hours per week. This course also includes participation in the childcare center as a parent volunteer one and one-half hours per week.  College units will be awarded to those completing the course. 

The highest priority for enrollment in the childcare program will go to full-time student-parents who are continuing their education from semester to semester.  Other students will be accommodated with priority given to those enrolled for the greatest number of units.  Childcare is scheduled by program. For more information and costs, check Child Study Center schedule and fees.
