Welcome to the Bardstown Child Care Program (BCCP)
Our program is a Stars Accredited, state-licensed child care program which is operated by Bardstown City Schools.
Our program offers a safe environment with trained staff who provide supervision and organized activities for children 6 weeks through 5th grade.
Our infant and toddler center was created to care for the children and grandchildren of Bardstown City School employees. Bardstown Staff Child Development Center is open on all school days, Gold days, the week before school begins, and the week after school ends. BCDC is located at 510 N. 5th St.
Our school-age center, Bardstown Educational Enrichment Program, serves children enrolled at Bardstown Early Childhood Education, Primary and Elementary. BEEP is located at 1000 Templin Avenue. The entrance is at the back of Bardstown Primary School.
You can always stop by or call to check on your child at any time. We provide adult supervision for children and a variety of age-appropriate activities such as arts/crafts, music, dramatic play, reading, science, blocks, tactile activities, group games, gym/playground, and a balance of active and quiet play. We also offer free choice of play, homework help, and relaxation opportunities. During extended school breaks, we schedule fun and interesting field trips such as visiting local attractions and area attractions in neighboring counties.
