The new childcare center is set to be built on donated land on Ford Drive in Ashland Business Park, home to 27 businesses with a total of 1,200 full-time equivalent employees. Plans for the center include an initial capacity to serve up to 150 children—infants through school age—with room for expansion.
"Employers want to be able to recruit talent, retain talent, and parents want to be able to work and provide for their families. And child care is an obstacle for many," Aspin said. An individual wanted to help the city create more child care option and donated the plot of land in the heart of the business area. A non-profit organization has committed to running the child care center, which also allows it to receive grants to keep it in operation once it does open. The center will feature income-based child care rates as well as employer-supported institution programs and an endowment fund will help sustain operations.
Families like Roeliff “Bubba” Pryor's are looking forward to having a child care center that they will be able to utilize in ways they are unable to know.
