Montessori Children's House of Lenawee

[05/18/20]   MCHL Community,
Please know that we’re closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation and will be sure to keep you updated about any future impact or changes. At this time, we are postponing the release of fall enrollment information while we wait for further direction from the Governor.
We are closely watching real estate within the city limits for a new location. Please contact [email protected] if you have any leads for us!
Sincerely,
MCHL Administration

[05/06/20]   We have openings for Disaster Relief Child Care. With the help of the Child Care Relief Fund Grant through the State of Michigan, we are able to offer a 10% reduction in cost. If you need financial assistance with child care, we also:

• Accept DHS child care assistance.
• Participate in the Great Start to Quality STARS program.

Send an e-mail for more information to [email protected]. We are here to assist families during this difficult time.

[04/08/20]   We still have space for Disaster Relief Child Care for essential employees. We are now licensed for 0-12 years. Call (517)417-4624 or email [email protected] for more information.

On Monday, April 6, MCHL will reopen for child care for essential employees. I have included the Disaster Relief Child Care form for you to look over and fill out if you are interested in care.

A few things of note:
• We will be open M-F from 7AM-6PM. The rates are reflective of a full day - there is no before/after school care charge.
• We are going to be emergency licensed to take infant through school aged children.
• We are limiting spots and implementing protocols to adhere to guidelines set forth by the CDC and Michigan Department of Health.
Below are the guidelines set forth by the CDC for child care programs during the crisis and the information sent by the Governor.
