Hardin County Family Development Center, Mid-Iowa Community Action, Inc.

Iowa Falls, Iowa

Quality child care is a major concern for all parents and in Iowa Falls, there was an acute shortage of acceptable options until MICA opened this new facility. The building is a secure facility with a dual door entrance and a key pad locking system. Once inside, each child has their own personalized cubbies and mats to provide a sense of ownership and belonging. The spacious play area has large operable windows to let in natural light and fresh air. It also a colorful and open interactive, exciting place filled with fun and educational images and toys. Outside the fun continues with ADA accessible sandbox, jungle gym and a kid friendly water fountain so they don’t ever have to interrupt play by going inside for a drink. Accessibility and safety are two main focuses of the child development and are considered for every project.
