Child Development Council of Adams County

Forty-one years ago in Hastings, working parents had few child care options. A group of dedicated individuals recognized a community need for affordable child care that was more than just babysitting. They formed the Child Development Council of Adams County and the group opened Pooh Corner Daycare later that year, the first daycare in Hastings.  

That’s four decades of the Alphabet song. Four decades of story time. Four decades of providing care that allowed parents to work knowing their children were not just being watched, but being nurtured.

Today Pooh Corner provides child care at two locations: First Presbyterian Church and Grace United Methodist Church in Hastings.

We strive to meet the evolving needs in our community and serve families with special needs, such as low incomes and handicaps.
