Learn more about Rollins’ new Evening Educare program, which offers low-cost, high-quality childcare to students in the Hamilton Holt School’s Professional Advancement and Graduate Studies programs.
Rollins’ new Evening Educare program provides high-quality childcare to parents pursuing bachelor’s and master’s degrees through the College’s Professional Advancement and Graduate Studies programs.
The new program, which is housed in the Hume House Child Development & Student Research Center on campus, provides childcare for children ages 5 to 11 while their parents attend evening classes on campus.
The Evening Educare program features a much smaller teacher-to-child ratio than typical childcare programs for elementary-age children with at least one teacher for every six children.
Launched this past fall, the program costs just $5 per hour for the spring and summer 2025 semesters. Thanks to a gift from the Warren and Augusta Hume Foundation, the program will be free for eligible students beginning in fall 2025.
