Main Campus Child Care Center

The College operates a full-time Child Care Center on its Main Campus in Henderson serving children of college students, and employees; and children in surrounding counties. We also serve as a training laboratory for the Early Childhood Associate program. The Main Campus center maintains a Five-Star License with the State of North Carolina. The facility earned the rating for having a knowledgeable and dedicated staff, a safe and attractive environment, and opportunities for children to develop mentally, physically and socially.

We serve children ages 1–5-year-old with a maximum capacity of 38 children. Our ratios are 1 teacher to 6 children in the one-year-old room; 1 teacher to 9 children in the two-year-old room; 1 teacher to 10 children in the three-year-old room; and 1 teacher to 14 children in the four/five-year-old room.

The Main Campus Child Care Center opens at 7:30 a.m. and closes at 5:30 p.m. Breakfast, lunch, and snacks are included in tuition. Tuition is $740.00 for the one- and two-year-olds, and $715.00 for the three-five-year-olds. Full-time students at Vance-Granville Community College are encouraged to place their names on the waiting list for placement of their children. Contact [email protected] for more information.

Parents who are interested in placing their children at the VGCC Child Care Center should contact the childcare manager. Because of the high demand for childcare services depending on the age group, a waiting list for enrollment is maintained at the center. Priority for enrollment is based on siblings first; students enrolled at VGCC second; employees or board members of VGCC third; and the surrounding communities last. When space is available, the director will call you with information regarding enrollment.
