Mount Kisco Child Care Center (MKCCC) provides high quality affordable care and early education to a diverse group of children in a safe and healthy environment.MKCCC is a non-profit, non-sectarian child care organization. Established in 1971 the Center started with 25 three and four-year old children. Today the center cares daily for 160 children, ages three months to eleven years.Built in 2002, our facility has over 20,000 sq. feet of living space that enables us to provide growth and learning opportunities for every child in a cozy setting with the warm and security of home. Our 7,500 sq. feet outdoor play space is perfect for everything from picnics to gardening. Unique to MKCCC is our "Feed Me Fresh" Nutrition Program, which is our year-round garden-to-table nutrition program which offers a hands-on approach to healthy eating and nutrition education. With the help of a team of nutritionists, farmers and chefs, MKCCC has created a curriculum that builds a natural appreciation for fresh, wholesome food. Each week toddlers, preschoolers and school-aged children prepare new recipes to share with their families. These cooking classes introduce the children to the tastes and textures of a variety of healthy homemade foods. We prepare breakfast, hot lunch and snacks from scratch in our own "Feed Me Fresh" kitchen. The kitchen staff purchases as much local and organic food as possible while using ingredients from the children's gardens.
