Extra Care Registration

WAIT LIST NOTICE

We regret to inform you that we are currently at our Capacity for Before and After School Care at THIS LOCATION and all new registrations will be placed on a wait list. We strongly suggest you still register to keep your place in line, but you will need to make alternate plans for care as we cannot predict when an opening will occur. Usually, once after-school programs (sports & clubs) begin, there is some movement in availability. You do not have to pay your registration fee until a space can be made available. Once an opening occurs you will receive an invoice for the registration fee and it must be paid to complete the process.
Drop-In Clients that are already registered will also need to make alternate plans until more space becomes available for after school care.

Sydnee

Sydnee is entering her third year working with M&M. She currently goes to Baker College, majoring in psychology, to obtain her bachelor's degree. Her time with the students was unfortunately cut short due to the pandemic after her first year, so it was nice to reestablish and build relationships when everyone came back. Sydnee feels that working with M&M has been amazing and believes the experience will be helpful towards her career in the future. She loves spending time with the students, laughing, playing games, while also helping them advance in their own lives.
