As a parent, who you entrust with the care of your children is critical. Our Kadena Air Base Child Development Center’s (CDC) primary mission is to provide quality child care services to Team Kadena Air Base, which enables our Airmen to meet mission requirements worldwide with the knowledge that their children are in a safe, healthy environment that fosters individual development through independent and creative exploration of their world.

The CDC is nationally accredited and staffed by well-trained professionals you can trust to care for your little ones ages six weeks to five years. Our center is truly developmental, with programs to enhance social skills, encourage children to think and reason, promote language and literacy, build physical development and skills, and much more!
