We are currently offering evening tours of our center due to COVID-19. Schedule a tour today!

With more than 40 years of service to our community, we are one of the most experienced childcare centers in the DC Metro area.

We use an award-winning evidence-driven curriculum that makes classroom play a transformative learning experience.

Many of our teachers have been employed with BCDC for more than 10 years, and several others have been with us for more than 25-30 years.

Our long-standing relationships with local families are the most important part of our work.

What Parents Are Saying
We love BCDC! They have a strong community and are really family at this point. Teachers and staff are caring and really love and know our children. They’re thoughtful about their curriculum, even at a very young age. My 4 and 2-year-old have been there since they were babies and adore it!
The dedication and kindness of the staff are evidenced by our daughter’s growth in intellect and personality. Because of BCDC, our child has made incredible strides with letters, counting, nature, and countless other topics as well as making friends and communicating.
My husband and I are first-time parents, so we’ve needed a lot of support with learning what is and isn’t developmentally appropriate for our little girl. As members of the BCDC community, we not only receive parenting support from the staff, but we have also bonded with other parents. We learn and share tips and techniques with them all the time. We feel incredibly lucky to be in such a loving and caring community.
