Enrolled families get a free week of tuition for referring a new family to TDC
Providing early education and quality care to facilitate the development of children and families to their fullest potential.
As has been communicated previously, all TDC Early Learning Centers are open for children and families at this moment. We are proud to serve the Greater Topeka Community, and our mission has not changed because of these trying times. We consider it a privilege to provide early care and education to each child who comes through our doors.
The entire staff and Board of Directors want all TDC families to know we care deeply about each of you. We are committed to providing a sense of normalcy for every child we serve, both during and after this unprecedented time, just as we have for almost six decades.
May you be well in the days and weeks ahead.
There are currently four Centers across the Topeka area that provide services!

"My children started with TDC in 2016, and because of generous scholarship donations we have been able to continue long-term, stable and supportive care. Without this assistance, I would be at risk for losing my childcare services, and ultimately my job. I am so appreciative."
~ Cade R.
"Thank you for working with my family to secure this educational component, and I'm so grateful that my son can continue at TDC. It's a place we both love!"
~ Denene T.
"We love the teachers and director at our center so much. If we are ever blessed with another baby, we wouldn't think twice about sending them to a TDC site."
~ Jen L.
TDC currently has a tablet with the KidReports App in every classroom (at four locations) so parents can have instant access to their child's day.
This program includes information about attendance, meals, reports, play activities, diaper changes, nap schedule, curriculum, newsletters, paperwork, photos, field trips, fundraisers and much more.
Make sure you register for this service during enrollment, and please give us feedback after you have used this App for awhile.
TDC’s Inclement Weather Policy is intended to accommodate the needs of both families and employees.
TDC Learning Centers will follow USD 501, unless USD 501 closes due to temperature. Independent choices may be reached by the Executive Director.
Parents and staff members should not contact Center Directors or Main Office regarding decisions that may or may not be made. All announcements pertaining to winter weather will be made by 5:30am on the day affected and notices will be posted on KSNT, WIBW, Facebook, Twitter, learnplaygrow.org, eblast, group text and KidReports.
We apologize for any inconvenience. However, the safety of our staff and families is our main priority.
