ABOUT

This business is sadly closed and this page will close shortly. If you are looking for childcare, many of our former students went to Country Bumpkins. We wish you luck in finding a good fit for you and your family.

this is what childcare should be

The Placitas Kid's Day Out program (formerly named Mother’s Day Out or “MDO”) was founded in 1989 to provide community-oriented, non-denominational daycare for children 18 months to 5 years in the Placitas, Bernalillo, and Rio Rancho areas. Members of MDO truly get to know each other and care for one another, all while helping their children to learn through play and compassionate conflict resolution.

who is Kdo for?

KDO is for all . Although our core hours are 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., extended hours are available for those with different needs (see more under Fees & Hours).

In addition, while many KDO members are stay-at-home mothers, we've had plenty of stay-at-home dads, grandparents, other caretakers of various relationships, and working parents make KDO their home, too! And if you're curious about the "serving Rio Rancho" part, yes, we've had several members drive in all the way from Rio Rancho because they were so impressed with our caring atmosphere and community focus.

In addition, all caretakers are invited to attend our regular meetings, where the KDO team decides how to revise and adapt to its members' needs. We're always growing and changing!

community

When you join Placitas KDO, you join a community. Birthdays are celebrated at KDO, parents truly get to know the kids, and community events like the 4th of July parade provide fantastic opportunities to connect. Many parents new to the area truly find their home here. When you're in KDO, you have a team.
