The Nest

Welcome to The Nest,
Union’s new employee childcare program!

“The employee childcare program, The Nest, is designed to provide an affordable quality childcare service to employees of the Union Public School District with children ages 6 weeks to 3 years of age,” said Theresa Kiger, executive director of Elementary Education for Union Public Schools. “Our program will provide a safe environment, focused on the physical, emotional, social and intellectual needs of our youngest children.  Our employee childcare program will be National Association for the Education of Young Children accredited and a 5-STAR DHS licensed program.”

The Nest at the Rosa Parks Early Childhood Education Center opened its doors August 14, 2023. And since its opening, there has been a waiting list to participate because of its popularity.

The Nest offers three types of classes:

  • Infants 6 weeks to 11 months for $800 a month;
  • Toddlers 12 months to 24 months for $752 a month; and
  • Toddlers 26 months to 36 months old for $700 a month.

Note: The Nest will accept DHS, Tribal and private pay.
